[amsat-bb] Re: Kenwood THD7E Problem with PC connection.

[Paul Luggar]

Dooh!   I need to read the instructions carefully, the Kenwood software 
comes in two flavours for the THD7 and I used the wrong version twice!  It 
looked the same in the folder I downloaded to, everything now working as 
normal.
If anybody else downloads the Kenwood THD7 software please be aware of the 
different versions!
