Thank you VE3FBZ!
You mentioned the hub and it triggered a memory of past issues with hubs.
The reason I used a hub is because the computer-end of the CAT cable for the
FT897 has the interface circuit moulded in and is therefore wider than normal
which in turn prevents the usb audio converter cable to be plugged into the
next usb port of the laptop.
I carefully ground off enough plastic from one side of the wide plug so both
fit in the laptop.
Result: No hub - problem gone!
Thanks again!
Best Regards,
