Hello Bob, What kind of serial port are you using? Unfortunately I don't have Windows 7, 64-bit, but on one of my PCs I run Windows Vista 64-bit.
CAT steering of the IC-910H works here (CAT baud rate 19200, CAT delay 70):
1. with COM 1 (genuine physical port that came with the PC),
2. with a Prolific USB-to-Serial adapter, driver date Nov. 19, 2009, driver version 3.3.10.140,
3. with a FTDI USB-to-Serial adapter, driver date March 13, 2009, driver version 2.4.6.0,
4. with 2 serial ports on a PCI card (MosChip-Semiconductor Technology Ltd., driver date May 22, 2008, driver version 1.0.0.6
I suppose these drivers will also work with Windows 7, 64-bit. But it is most important to look for the latest driver versions for Windows 7, 64-bit.

Hi all,
Anyone running and IC-910H with SatPC32 and Windows 7 64-bit? Everything seems to work except for the CAT function. I have the proper port selected for the radio, but cannot get CAT to do any controlling.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks & 73
