ALL:
Well, after all of this testing on the ICOMS ... I have now found that the GUESS (on my part)
about what might work for setting and reporting the SPLIT condx of those ICOM rigs --
is JUST not working ... the coding works to set the ICOM into split and out of split
--- but, what I can not SEE is the RETURN from the Radio(s) when we send a command
of (hex) 0F to the radio -- the radio (as advertised) should return a 00 or 01 ...
And, the problem right now - is that I can not see (because I do not have one of these
ICOMs) what the DXbase is truely receiving back from our command to the radio ...
The bottomline now appears that I will simply have to FIND a DXbase user who is
running an XP machine, running on a TRUE Serial Port (between DXbase and the
Radio), is using a 7600, 7700, 7800, or 9100 ICOM rig, and who is willing to
let me use the TeamViewerQS program so that I can install the program called
Free Serial Port Monitor --
where the monitor program TELLS me and THEN I CAN SEE -- what the output from DXbase
is -- and WHAT the response from the Radio truely is .... 
Back to square-one !! Bummed-out to say the least!
Just FYI ---
