[WriteLog] Interface problem

:::: Thank you so much Mark.....that did the trick.

Apparently there is a minor "bug" in the setup area that causes you to need 
to set the baud rate manually, at least for some radios. I set it for 4800 
manually for my FT950, and now all works perfectly.
Thanks to everyone who responded. This reflector is a great source of info!
