Re: [Dx4win] KENWOOD TS570S
I am not familiar with Microham. Different brands of USB adaptors will give different results. FWIW, I have a Belkin model that has worked in all applications. A search of the archives might turn up something, I seem to recall this issue having been around before.

Re: [Dx4win] KENWOOD TS570S
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:eric.low...@yahoo.com] Sent: 27 June 2011 14:09 To: Andy P Hewitt Subject: Re: [Dx4win] KENWOOD TS570S Suspect the USB adaptor.

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN - Kenwood TS570S Parameters (Repost)
Romas, I thank you for your advice but it does not work for me. For some reason adding IF; causes DX4Win to delete the selection of the TS950 from the Radio1. Radio2 (the TS570S) remains the same and loses communication with the radio after a few seconds, just as it did before. 73 Andy G3SVD -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Romualdas Ulevicius Sent: 13 February 2011 15:13 To: Dx4win@Mailman.

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN - Kenwood TS570S Parameters (Repost)
Bill, I also have a TS570S (bought in the US) and get the same results, more or less. In my case the radio control drops out after a variable time delay, which can be anything from 10 seconds or so to a couple of hours. I get the same messages as you. I am also using DX4Win 8.04 but the same problem has always existed with various earlier iterations of the program. I have had the rig for about ten years and have always used DX4W. I also have a TS950SDX which works FB, and when I have raised this questions previously I have been advised that if the prog works with one it should work with the other. My PC is a Dell Dimension E520 desk top, running Windows XP Home SP3, my settings in Preferences are the same as yours, except that I am using 4800 baud. I have tried various speeds with any effect. I am using a MicroHam DB9K CAT interface with the PC. After trying to resolve this problem without success I decided to just live with it. I have found that switching the 570S off and back on again reconnects the CAT. If you get any replies that provide a solution I would be very pleased to know. 73 Andy G3SVD -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Bill Turner Sent: 12 February 2011 15:57 To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] DX4WIN - Kenwood TS570S Parameters (Repost) I've been working on computer control for the TS-570S and have it going for N1MM, FLDigi, and HRD but I'm missing something for DX4WIN.
