I've controlled my configuration just now: I have 2 rigs controlled (FT1000 and Kachina505DSP) and both works fine, but my kachina software is installed in the default directory. Last chance: control if the file name in radio databases have drive and path completed: C:\path\kc505_01.dat

Yes both are running. I actually had DX4win and Kachina working 4-5 years ago but forgot. When I went to the Radio database I saw Kachina still in there but a different directory. I can see \path\kachina\kc505_01.dat and it is being updated but DX4win doesn't seem to be seeing it. >Remeber to give dx4win's radio >preferences the rigth name of the file used from the kachina software DX4win is set to File | Databases | Radios | Kachina and File Interface to c:\pf\ham\Kachina\kc505_01.dat. File | Preferences | Radio | KC505DSP and com port is set to 1. I don't understand why the com port is set to 1 as Kachina should do it's interfacing with kc505_01.dat. DX4Win is not using any com ports at the moment - until I get basic control. >and to >set property kachina software to be used from third party programs.
