[TenTec] [Ten-Tec-Omni-VII] Omni VII and HRD

[Bob McGraw - K4TAX]

OK thanks to a suggestion received, once I connected using Jupiter as the radio of choice, then going back and selecting Omni VII (radio) all seems to be working correctly.  Closing the program and reloading it, I see that the radio selection in the SELECT screen now lists the Jupiter and the Omni VII.  Selecting Omni VII the application proceeds to load, connect and operate correctly.

What changed, don't have a clue.  I do know that I had to connect via the Jupiter initially for whatever to get configured correctly.  From then on, all seems to work.


Thanks Jim.

  With the latest version of HRD, V5.24.0.03, I've not been able to get it to connect to the Omni VII in Radio mode although it does list Omni VII (Radio) in the radio list. However, when using "Jupiter" as the selected radio in HRD it does connect. I've not seen anything on the HRD discussion groups. Configuration as to COM port, speed, parity, data bits and such being the same for both radios. COM 1, 57600, 8 bit, N Parity, 1 STOP, RTS on, DTS on. Thinking a file was corrupt or missing, I removed HRD and then downloaded it again with no change in results. Thinking it might be a version of firmware in the radio that I'm evaluating for Tentec, I stepped back to a couple of earlier versions with no success.

  FYI - The current version of HRD does connect successfully with the Eagle and works quite nice.

  What am I missing regarding the Omni VII? Or is there an issue with HRD.
