Hi all,
I’ve read through a number of threads and tried all the suggestions, but I can’t get wfview to connect to either my IC-7300 or my IC-9700. Both are connected to my PC, running Windows 10, using USB cables.
I opened the wfview.log and it said this;

Then a long string of “device not open” lines.
the “COM1” thing confuses me as the ports that the IC-9700 and IC-7300 use are COM9, COM10 and COM11 respectively. I have tried specifying a COM port in the set up, but with no sucess.
I’ve closed all other programs that might use the COM ports, such as WSJT-X, and have rebooted the PC and unplugged and replugged the USB cables.
I have got CI-V Transceive set to “ON” for both radios, and I keep checking that it’s on. I’ve switched off the IC-9700 and tried connecting to the IC-7300, and vice versa.
Any ideas as to what I’m doing wrong please?
