Whoops, my mistake, I guess I should have read the Log-EQF manual 
more carefully. The manual states that the program uses "outputs" 
1,6,7,8 for band data and uses "outputs" 2-5 for DVK in "CT 
compatibility mode". Since it also refers to "controlling the eight 
LPT port data lines", these "outputs" apparently correspond to PINS 
2-9, thus making it the same as TRLog (and CT)!

I hope someday my TS-850 will magically grow up to be an FT-1000!
