The only way to get around this problem is to shut down one software program before opening the other. Both require the same serial port to allow communication with the software but cannot be used concurrently. I have been using LOG4OM as my station log book which has many great features (uses the Omni-rig software which allows integration of the main station transceiver with SDR software) and HAM RADIO DELUXE as my station control software. The USB cable can be ordered to allow correct pin-out combinations for different makes of transceiver.

The transceiver is connected either directly to a computer using a RS-232 cable or if not available as part of the hardware configuration (eg modern laptops do not have a designated hardware COM port) then USB-serial converters can be used which create a hardware COM Port.

Programs which are commonly used can be divided into two broad categories – logging programs to allow the call sign, frequency signal strength of contacts made to be listed and control programs which when used with a DX cluster allow quick frequency changes to the station we wish to contact. This can be particularly useful for part sighted operators allowing control by simply using a mouse click to change frequency, RF gain, notch filters etc. Many Ham radio applications can control the operation of transceivers which allows for greater control of the many layered menu controls often found in modern equipment. Communication between the computer and the connected hardware uses the bench standard RS-232 protocol for serial communication of transmission data.
