I have discovered a problem since I began using my rig interface last week. Please advise if anyone out there has a similar problem and/or what the solution might be.... I use com 1 for my interface. The rig and DX4win works fine together except for one phenomenon. If I turn on the rig before opening DX4WIN or my email program, then the computer thinks I am already connected and will not activate the dial up connection. It seems like the computer thinks the activity on com1 is an already existing dail up connection. BUT, if I connect to the internet before turning on the radio, then the automatic dialup process works just fine. That is ok except I must wait a period until the radio connection times out before being able to use DX4WIN. I am using WinME, 56K modem, generic phone dialup service, and com1 is used for the Kenwood. Is there a setting to eleviate this inconvenience, or should I just get used to it? Thanks, J Sartain KC4ALG [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> You shouldn't have to put up with that. Check Start | Settings | Dial-up Connections. Bet you have one pointing to COM1. Delete it. John, K2CIB
