I can't see anything wrong and I have two Omni VI's.

You HAVE tried 2400 baud, right?

Here's a piece of my .cfg:

Radio one control port = serial 1
Radio one baud rate  = 2400
Radio one name = Radio 1
Radio one type = ic735

Radio two control port = serial 2
Radio two baud rate = 2400
Radio two name = Radio 2
Radio two type = ic735

I suggest you go back to your serial cable.

If you are using a db25 to db25 cable, make sure your using this wiring
config:
Omni	PC
pin	pin
2	2
3	3
7	7

The following pin listing is very important. Some versions of the Omni VI
manual db25 to db9 cable wiring diagram were wrong!

db25 to db9
Omni	PC
pin	pin
2	3
3	2
7	5

Good luck and 73,
