[WriteLog] CAT control for FTdx-5000 ?

[Magnus Aronsson]

Thank you Joe but I dont get it working.

I have a full serial cable. A regulad DB9 serial cable, not a null-modem.

Tried setting the CAT TOT to 1000 and also 3000.

Have it set on serial port 1. CW is on serial#4

Rig-type Yaesu FTDX-9000
Baud AUTO
Poll is ticked

Comm PTT is YES

All mode PTT on CW port RTS is ticked, if I unclick it it sends CQ all the 
time.


Any ideas?
