[Logic] LOGIC SERIAL PORT ERROR

Sun Sep 12 23:36:41 EDT 2004

Hi Dan,
Have you tried communicating with the rig with something else? If not, 
K6SE's MPFilters will tell you if the rig interface is working. It will 
also tell you a lot about your filter configuration. You can find it on 
VA3CR's web site at http://www.va3cr.net
