Flex 6500 to Acom 2000a
Attempting to hook up Flex 6500 to the Acom 2000A. I have tried the old method I used with the PSDR with the RCA cable that didn't work. Then I tried to a USB DB9 FTDI cable with the null modem cable.. Ddutils doesn't seem to read it.
The port is right. W 7 does not show any conflicts with the port.. Any ideas on how to resolve this would be great appreciated..

The RCA cable should work just fine, just make sure you have enabled the RCA port PTT in the radio setup section of SmartSDR Settings.

Thanks for the great guide on how to setup the Acom 2000a with Ddutils.
I have port 3 set up chosen on the 2k amp on the Amp tab. But it is not stilling see the amp.
Do I need to setup a Virtual Serial Port pair such as 3-13?
