Tim and all,
The COM7 is the port that your particular computer has assigned to the
KXUSB cable's USB to serial adapter. Everyone else will have to
discover which COM port is assigned to their cable. It should be
briefly displayed on a Windows computer near the clock when it is
plugged in - or look in Device Manager to see which port is assigned.
Furthermore, if the USB port that the KXUSB is plugged into changes, the
COM port assigned can also change.
The KX2 and KXUSB cable has no connections for RTS and DTR - the only
valid lines are RXD and TXD. Even though the software supports PTT
using DTR or RTS, it cannot be used with the KX2. PTT via CAT command
or VOX operation are the only possible methods of putting the KX2 into
Transmit.
