[TRLog] TS-850 <-> computer

[wx0b@arraysolutions.com]

Wayne,
I had a rig failure during the test and one guy had brought his 850 as a backup
fortunately.  I was getting a nap at the time but they got it interfaced without a
hitch.  Changed the Logcfg.dat file and brought it all up in no time.   So all I
know is that it worked with the 850 interface into a serial port, with the only
change being to take out the Icom config info and substituting in the Kenwood info.

Jay, WX0B
