[WriteLog] Rig Control for IC746Pro

Hi Chris,
At the moment I have v10.37B running and it does have a drop down selection
for my IC756Pro. I did have problems with the automatic settings with a one
programme. I have found it is best to take the rig off of AUTO, and any
interface programmes you might be using, take them off of AUTO and preset
the rate to 19k2 baud. At one time I had a very minor RFI problem which was
fixed by temporarily reducing the rate to 9k6 baud.

The interface I have I bought from Creative Services Software.

Hopefully, I assume there is not other programmes or WriteLog setting that
would be trying to share the save communications port or IRQ as your
interface. As for v10.38 someone else will have to verify that for us.

I didn't obey the cardinal rule of trying everything out before the 
contest and discovered I couldn't get the rig interface to work in 
Writelog.  I had to set the band manually.  Fortunately I didn't have to 
change it as I was on for such a short period of time.  I am using WL 
v10.38 and an IC746Pro.  I know the PC to rig interface is working as I 
get the freq. info transferring to my everyday logger Prolog 2K.  I have 
done everything in WL as I had done with my IC706 and that worked fine. 
  I noticed that the Pro model is not listed, only IC746, but the same 
is true with Prolog and that works fine. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks and 73,
Chris
