I made a bunch of phone contacts on 20 Meters. So my logging programs would work I had the CI-V cable and I used it for rig control. I was just getting ready to activate Devils Tower for Parks on the Air (POTA) and didn't want to wait. I restarted the computer for good luck, hi hi. Just search for "silicon" in the search field of add/remove programs and you'll find it. After which I went to add/remove programs and uninstalled the Silicon Driver Program. I uninstalled the faulty device (remember, it had a warning symbol next to it) from Device Manager and then disconnected the USB cable. Still nothing and in Device Manager the device (Com port and Audio CODEC) was showing up under "USB Serial bus controllers" and it had a warning icon attached to it. I tried everything including reinstalling the USB driver from Icom. It was not recognizing my Com port or Audio CODEC. After opening Device manager I saw my Com port was missing as well as the Audio CODEC. Later when I went back to open everything no joy. I closed it and the logging program as well as Gridtracker. While chatting, WSJT-X showed an error "USB Audio not connected", "Soundcard input error" or something of that nature. I minimized those while talking to some Hams on the Cormac CQ 100 program. So basically the trouble started when I was using Log4OM, WSJT-X and Gridtracker. Of course this will work with any Icom radio using the USB driver download. Here's my USB Audio CODEC fix and it fixed my com port too. I had this trouble before and didn't write it down. The next time this happens I can look back and see what the fix was. The com port and USB Audio CODEC went missing in Device Manger. My IC-7300 hit a SNAFU, so I wanted to write about it. Hey guys! I'm at Devils Tower and operating Parks on the Air (POTA).
