Eric, Thank you for the reply. However - I forgot the reason why I am using a MicroHam usb interface - my PC does not have a serial port connector only USB! I have been struggling with this problem for a long time. It connects and then drops out after some short time. The drop out time is anything between 10 seconds and ten minutes or maybe more.
Thanks anyway. 73 Andy G3SVD _____ From: Eric Lowell [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 27 June 2011 14:09 To: Andy P Hewitt Subject: Re: [Dx4win] KENWOOD TS570S Suspect the USB adaptor. I ran a TS570 with 6m for several years with a serial cable.

I have two Kenwood rigs a TS950SDX and a TS570S (primarily used on 6m). The TS950SDX will connect and stay connected to most logging programs (DX4Win, Wintest, MixW, SD etc) via a Microham usb adaptor. However despite my best endeavours The TS570S won't stay connected to DX4Win. It will to the other programs. I always thought that all Kenwood radios used the same settings as does the K3 but that it obviously not the case. I have been trying with the TS570 settings since I upgraded to ver.8 and I have just updated DX4Win to ver. 8.05 and I have tried the TS480 settings. In the past I have tried all the different rig settings in FILE/PREFERENCES/RADIO always with the same result. The rig will connect and both leds on the MicroHam DB9-K usb interface flash showing that it is talking to the PC. But after a few minutes the program indicates that it has lost communication with the rig and everything freezes for a couple of minutes. This is quite frustrating especially now when I am chasing the new PJs on 6m. 73 and many thanks Andy G3SVD ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
