[WriteLog] USB to CIV problem

[Andrei Stchislenok]

Joe, check your CI-V address. Every ICOM radio has to have its own address
and also important the speed in Baudot. Icoms are sensitive to these things,
I have just bought IC-7200 and had a hard time to make it work with WL, till
I got the right address and speed which have to match with WL numbers.

Since you match them, you should be fine.
