[TenTec] What model does tentec start with using computer control?

[Marshall Stewart]

The OMNI VI Plus lets you control the rig from contest logging software,
etc.

My experience with the OMNI VI Plus was that I needed at 2 serial ports or 1
serial and 1 parallel port on my computer: 1 serial for rig control and 1
serial or parallel for PTT or CW keying.

I have an Omni V but it has a decidely non-standard DB25 serial 
interface on it. It was impossible to get CAT working on it until I 
installed Carl's (N4PY) Omni V.9 ROM which transformed the serial 
interface into something straightforward. You'll still need a separate 
serial port to switch the PTT. I don't think it's possible in software, 
but I could be wrong.
