Hi Jerry,?
I just realized you should get a ? reply to an unrecognized command, not a '. You cant use an RS232 to USB adaptor either, you need a SERIAL to USB adaptor (as in the QLG2...?)

Yes, QCX has a timeout. You can't type a command in one character at a time at human speed. You need to prepare the command elsewhere, then copy-and-paste it in so that all the characters are sent one after another, and the timeout doesn't get triggered.?

The?Arduino serial monitor is almost entirely YUCK but the one thing that is good, is that you get to type in the whole command at human speed, and it doesn't get sent to the device until you click the send button, then it gets sent all in one go.?
Sometimes there's a inter-character timeout on the cat. I know the 991 has that...

Actually I just tried it with FLRIG and it has a "Send" function where you type in the string and hit send.? When I did that the QCX returned a single (`).? Also commands like FA; and FA28074000; also returned the same symbol.? So something else is wrong with it.

Sorry I wasn't clear.? Actually, I was sending the whole command, for example, typing KA; and then hit the enter key but I was getting that ` reply every time I pushed a button on the keyboard, including when I hit the enter key.? Or perhaps I don't understand.? Are you perhaps saying that typing the command and then enter on Putty just won't work because of the way Putty sending the characters before hitting enter?? ?Maybe there's just a setting somewhere that I need to change??

Jerry, you can’t send characters one at a time to the mini, that why you are seeing the ‘ reply. you have to put the whole command together and send it as a block.
