Hello, I had a Yaesu FT1000D working one time with dx4win. Now I have another and am getting "Radio timed out" message. Using K1NU interface and keying works fine. Also everything works in Writelog no problem. Settings Address = 00 with default checked Baud rate =4800 with default checked Poll rate =5000 DTR high = not checked RTS high = checked I am on Com one same as with Writelog. Someone please remove my blinders! Thank you for any help.

I don't use COM keying, so I'm not sure, but I'd check the settings on the DX4WIN Preferences CW tab. You need to specify there if the DTR or RTS line is being used to generate the CW. You may be sending the CW on the control line that needs to be on continuously to power the interface unit. If the interface is powered from DTR line, you should have that box checked and the RTS line set for keying in the CW setup window. Be sure these settings are "harmonized". $20 or so will get you a WinKey that avoids all those problems. at the expense of another COM port or a cheapo USB to RS-232 converter. I highly recommend this solution. 73... Randy, W8FN
