<div dir="ltr">HI Everyone,<div><br></div><div>I believe you all are thinking in the right direction. With the help and guidance of Mike Rees, I changed the Com Port to COM1 and Chirp is now working fine. It is actually easy to change the COM port number in Windows. Plus I learned of Kenwood's software MCP700 (Memory Control Program) which handles various settings that Chirp does not address in the D700.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks very much Mike for your time!</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards and 73,</div><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><br>Rich Holtman<br></div></div></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>KD9ANU</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
