[WriteLog] COM Port / TS850 Interface problem

[Mike McCarthy, W1NR]

What kind of interface are you using?  Is it a cable or genuine Kenwood
IF box?  The cables need to be powered from the COM port and it might
not have enough juice to run it.  Are there special drivers for the new
COM card?  Are they up to date?  Can they talk to any other devices like
a TNC or regular modem?

Mike, W1NR

Gentlemen--I am a brand new WL user, and have a problem with an add on
PCI card for com ports.

My TS850's talk to WL via the built in com 1 on the computer, with two
radios and two different cables.

I have insatalled a VScom PCI card with dual com ports and an LPT.  I
have assigned VScom card ports to com 3 and com 4. Neither  radio will
talk to WL on the add on ports.

The log window has "No Rig" in the frequency window.

Any ideas?
