[drats_users] Gatting two 2820's to talk DRATS

Everything is not in front of me at the moment, so I could be a little 
wrong.

on the radio...
GPS Tx must be OFF.
DV Data Tx = AUTO.
GPS Data = OFF

I've done it bunches with the 2820 and it works great.  Biggest problem is 
remembering to turn the GPS Tx and Data stuff off.  The actual GPS can be 
on, but sending it must be off.

See if this helps.

you are correct. I wrongly pasted the 92 instruction line, instead of the 
2820.

I did set the 2820 for 9600 baud, and still does not work.

9600 for the 2820, 38400 for the '92.

My copies of DRATS on Windows 7 laptops works fine connected to the 
Ratflector. Also, I can communicate with my 92AD and 3 other 92AD's via 
direct RF DRATS.

We have a large emcom exercise coming up the end of April and want to 
demonstrate DRATS messaging via RF between 3 2820's.

So far, we have been unable to get them to receive each other. I am using 
the 3/32 stereo to DB9 serial cables from the data port to the PC's that 
have real serial ports(that work fine with
the 92ADs). When connected, I can get DRATS to key the 2820s and they seem 
to send, but nothing is received that I can tell on the other 2820s, or 
92ADs.
I have them set as shown below-
IC-92AD  38400DV DATA TX = AUTO, GPS TX = DISABLED, GPS AUTO TX = OFF


I know it is something simple I have set wrong, or not yet set. So, someone 
that has this working, help please.

thanks,
Kent
