[TenTec] Ham Radio Deluxe

[DW Holtman]

Dell,

Thank you for taking the time to send the setup information. However, it 
still does not communicate. I did a master reset of the Omni with no change?

I have a couple of additional questions. The PCI serial card has two DB9 
female connectors on it. Looking at the hardware information on Windows XP 
it says they are COM-5 and Com-6. How do I tell which is which? I.E.: is the 
cable hooked up to 5 or 6?

In TRX the setup manager (Parameters) on the right side there is a TRX Port 
1 with a pull down box with all of the possible Com 5,6 etc connections. 
Below this is another pull down box with Com 5, 6 etc. Which one is for the 
communication port the cable is hooked up to my computer? What is the other 
one for?

Thank you again for your help.

Best,
DW Holtman
