[LOGic] Logic 8 with microHam MK

Sun Jan 13 18:42:35 EST 2008

Jamie, I can't think of what could be wrong... but the first thing I 
would do is go back to an earlier version of Logic and confirm the 
problem corresponds to the update. If it does, you will have to contact 
Dennis and find out if he has done any work with the serial interface.
