    "content": "Thanks for the prompt reply Erich. I'm currently at my winter home in \nFlorida, all my sat equipment is at my summer home in NJ, so I didn't have \nit in front of me to help Scotty try and sort out the USB drivers. That \nbeing said, I know the 9100 comport is virtual, but I wasn't sure about the \nLVB, but that still doesn't explain to me why I would lose the LVB \ncalibration if I turn on the devices in an incorrect order. I usually save \nthe pass by looking out the window at the antennas and quickly coming up \nwith a fudge factor to enter into the rotor offsets in SatPC32 , then do the \nre-calibration afterwards.  I would think I would just get a comport \nerror,that would be fixable by simply turning off, then on the devices in \nthe correct order. Any ideas on this?\n\n\nAlso, while discussing this, I think back to when I had this problem. I \nremember SatPC32 taking quite awhile to recover from my operational blunder. \nI routinely use the 9100, along with my K3 with DXLab, the DXLab rig control \nprogram Commander doesn't have this problem. If the 9100 is off when I try \nand select it with Commander it just sits there till I turn on the 9100 and \nthen all is well. I don't have to reboot Commander to recover from the \nmissing comport error. I will be back in NJ for the summer in a few days and \nwill be able to test this if you want me to try anything...\n\n73 Jeff kb2m\n\n\n-----Original Message----- \nFrom: Erich Eichmann\nSent: Tuesday, June 23, 2015 1:29 AM\nTo: Jeff ; [email protected]\nSubject: Re: [amsat-bb] SatPC32 actinh wierd\n\nHi Jeff,\nI suppose you steer the IC-9100 via one of  it's two USB ports for CAT\ncontrol. Then it is necessary to switch on the IC-9100 before you start\nSatPC32. The built-in USB-to-Serial adapter of the IC-9100 is fed by the\nradio. Therefore the generated (virtual) COM port is not available if\nthe radio is off. When SatPC32 starts it checks whether the selected COM\nports for CAT and rotor control are available and sends the error\nmessage if not.\n\nYou can only avoid this if you connect the radio via a \"CAT cable\"\nbetween the PC and the radios CI-V connector because the built-in\nUSB-to-Serial adapter of the CAT cabel is fed by the PC.\n\nThe LVB Tracker uses also a built-in USB-to-Serial adapter. So, it's\ngenerated virtual COM port is also only available if the LVB Tracker is on.\n\n73s, Erich, DK1TB\n\n\nAm 21.06.2015 um 22:38 schrieb Jeff:\n> I feel your pain Scotty, I  have a similar problem with my 9100, LVB, and \n> SatPC32.
