We spent an hour together, mostly just chatting. The problem turns out not to be HRD code but with accessing MS Access. We scheduled a repair time using Team Viewer. Remember, Mike is currently living in Australia. He promised to get the program working, or else. I contacted HRD via their website asking for help creating an adif file of the log. I became frustrated enough to want to transition to another logging program. Unless you get a USB to Serial Port converter cable with a Prolific chip, it will drop the connection regularly.I was having the same issue as N4EEB logging program slowing down and freezing up. The only issue that I have had with a USB to Serial Port converter is running the IC-735 CIV port. Most can't be used with HRD because the configuration port selector doesn't go that high. I found that they configure from COM1 to COM12. I used a USB to Serial Port converter cable on my desktop to help me map all of the USB ports, so I knew what COM port they would configure as. The USB to Serial Port converter cable, with a one transistor interface, handles PTT keying and CW keying. And, like the laptop, the audio in/out from the laptop go in through the microphone connector. I use the built in serial port, with a 4 transistor home brew interface, for CIV control of my IC-735. The desktop has a single built in serial port and about 12 USB ports. The audio in/out from the laptop go in through the microphone connector. Currently I have it hooked up to my HTX-100 with a home brew interface. I don't do any real install, I just plug them in and they configure a COM port for me. The laptop doesn't have any wired serial ports but works fine with the USB to Serial Port converter cables just fine. I use version of HRD (5.24.?) on a Windows 7 laptop and on a XP desktop system.
