Hi John,

This should be separated from WSPR, though it may also pass through to
WSPR, it does not appear to be a WSPR issue yet.

Until you can connect / test rigctl / rigctld (Hamlib 1.2.15.3 or v3 aka
Bills integration) with the IC-7000 from the command line, there's not
much point in running the command through WSPR, as it will try to do the
same thing you are doing manually, just through a .py script rather than
CMD Window.

You can look at the bottom of wspr.py for the commands that are set in
the Setup screen.
