[TenTec] need help getting a Pegasus up and running

[Clayton Brantley]

>From what I can read, the radio looks for COM1 but doesn't mention baud rate.  The RX led on the front panel should slowly blink
until the radio and pc are on speaking terms then it should be steady on.

The usb cables are not too reliable here and I do use a real serial port.  Might try that to see.  I bought one of the TenTec usb to 

serial cables and it didn't work on 3 computers here.  Guess I'm too old school but a serial port (RS-232) is needed even today.  Hi

Good luck Clayton N4EV

Using the TT software from the TT down load site.  Computer is xp with sp-3 and 4 gig of ram. Software loads fine on computer. Using a usb to serial cable,which on the device controller says its in place and working fine and is set on com 3. I went into the TT software and changed from com1 to com3 . turned on the Pegasus and started the software the two could not communicate with each other. tried all 6 different com port settings ,nothing changes. re loaded the TT software ,no change. What about the Baud rate and priority stuff,make a difference? could find no where the TT requirements for rates etc. 
     I just got this Pegasus, was told it worked fine ...don't they all say that... I will buy the N4PY software as soon as I make sure the basic Pegasus is working ok. But need to get it up and on line with what I have.

Maybe the usb/serial cable a bad thing??
can put a serial card in if needed . 

Sure would be grateful for any help on this. After using a flex 5000 and power sdr   for 4 years,thought the little Pegasus would be a no brainier.
Thanks
