Did you

Restart Log4om

Restart your pc

Check the baud rate set in log4om matched that of the radio

Check that the com port number has not changed due to a windos update - Yes I know you said it works with hrd but HRD can automatically set the port number whereas Hamlib and Omnirig cannot

Thanks terry and i did say noting has changed ,I've not had a windows update since last week and the radio was working perfectly fine up to the point of uploading the adif which i cant imagine has any bearing on the system .I've rechecked the omnirig and nothing has changed .i did do a full log4om and did a reinstall and nothing has changed completely baffled as to why one minute its working fine then shows offline the next. this happened yesterday and I've checked and rechecked

Are you willing to install skype on the Log4OM PC so that we can communicate and you can share your screen with me so that I can assist you?
