[Dxbase] Anyone using DXBase 2005 with the Ten-Tec Orion?

Thu May 13 07:26:22 EDT 2004

Thanks for the Orion-DXBase 2005 tip, Ron. After I checked the CTS box as
you suggested the connection started working. I searched the Help file for
"Orion" and "CTS" and didn't get any hits, so I'm posting the info here for
other Orion users.
I like the new DXB 2005 features, but the program seems a little sluggish
compared to DXB 2004. Anyone else notice this?

Bill,
I am running the Orion with Dxbase 2005. Dxbase properly loads and log the
mode and frequency from the Orion.
In the radio setup under User Options make sure that you have done the
following: the baud rate set to 57600, parity is None, Word Length is 8
bits, and Stop bits set to 1. Also, make sure the CTS box has a check mark
in it, and that the DTR High box is unchecked.
As you stated the Load Band/Mode from HF Transceiver must have a check mark
in its box.

I have my Ten-Tec Orion connected to my computer via a serial port. DXBase
2005 will QSY the radio and set the mode when I click on the QSY column in
the Internet Cluster window.
However, when I'm tuning the bands and making QSOs DXbase does not "Load
Band/Mode From HF Transceiver" (as I selected in User Options), instead just
grabbing the frequency and mode from the previously logged QSO.
"Connect HF Radio 1 Serial Interface" is selected, BTW.
Anyone else using a Ten-Tec Orion with DXBase 2005? If so, are you
experiencing this problem?
