Good to know that it does work with Windows 10.
Yes to both of those questions.  What I see on the TS-2000 is that
the 'CTRL' annunciator turns on on the Main side and the 'CTRL' flashes ONCE
on the Sub side and that's as far as it goes.  It does set the frequency 
once when
toggling the 'C' to C- and back to C+ but then is stuck with the Main 
'CTRL' showing
and doing nothing more.

It's the exact same set up I was using on Windows 7 right down to the RT 
Systems
USB to Serial dongle.  I also tried a Keyspan dongle with the same results.

I've tried different baud rates, different delay settings, etc. About 
the only thing
I haven't tried is a complete reset of the TS-2000.  I don't want to do 
that as I would
lose all of its settings but that may be next.

Thanks for your suggestions, Burns.
