Hi again,
No response last time, so I thought I would give this another stab?

I've downloaded and installed 9.73 and, with FT-1000D rig control, I
find the following:
a) CT will not pick up what mode the radio is in when I first launch the
program.
b) Switching the mode on the radio itself will not cause CT to follow.
c) The FIRST Ctrl-F1 or F2 changes the mode ONLY in CT, but not on the
radio.  Then with each subsequent Ctrl-F1 or F2 the mode indeed alternates
in CT and on the radio, but because of the first NON-change, it is now
reversed.  CT reads one mode, the radio another.  If you compensate by
changes just the mode on the radio (which, as mentioned in "b" is NOT
followed by CT), the same process begins again with a first "false start".
d) Having done "c" several times, I also find that direct entry of a
frequency and <enter> will indeed change the frequency, but also the MODE
too?
*** Computer is p-200mmx booted to DOS.

Any ideas, similar problems?
