[WriteLog] Connecting my Flexradio 8400M to Writelog

[Suzieb]

Sri to break in but I thought I would try to help with setups and show 
what my setup is like.  The Flex 6000 and 8000 series appear to set up 
the same and it is just what version of writelog you have is what you 
will see on setup. Before you start make sure SmartSDR is running

First I went to Setup and then Writelog options.  Select Rig Type as 
Flex-6000/8000 as shown, then select the radios name, or if you only 
have one radio it might come up automatically.
I think I left everything else the same but you see how mine is set up.  
There is a screen on the internet that I used but forgot where is was, 
and uses and older version of Writelog, but it gives you the idea.

Second go to SmartSDR CAT and create a com port, or use one, like I did 
that I won't be using when Writelog is running.  Then go into Rittyrite 
and select that same com port you created in the CAT program.  Now 
select Sound Board AFSK in the TU type, if I'm right it should be 
working well.

I don't do SO2R/SO2V so I can't tell any more on how that part is 
setup.  I' lucky to use just one radio!

I hope this works and helps you set up your radio, and hope to see you 
all in the log
