[TRLog] test driving the band map...

[KL7RA]

Hi Mike

I may not understand your question completely as I use Icom
radios and the bandmap works fine with them. They are set to 
1200 baud (the only rate that works reliable) and I have the 
polling set to the default. 

TRLog polls the radio about once a second and the freq does
lag the dial a little but it has the numbers by the time you type 
anything. CT follows in perfect sync with the dial but uses serial 
board IRQ's.
