Hi all, I installed D-rats via the 'karmic' repository' and synaptic, but although it runs ok and I can connect to the 'flector, there is no way I can get it to connect to the radio (2820) via serial. I have tried sudoing etc but still no joy. Yep speed is 9600 and all. Any ideas would be appreciated and thanks a priori BRs George SV4LAX
