A great program for my FT 897D and the FT 857D  Time owned: more than 12 months
A great program and a great addition for both the FT 897D and the 857D. This program was a determining factor for my buying both transceivers. It works flawlessly with my laptop and my desktop both running XP and one another desktop running Vista OS's. The program has features that are available that I don't currently need. The tech support is second to none. Both husband and wife are extremely knowledgeable, polite and easy to contact. They were quick to send me out a newer version of the program without any charge. Thank You RT Systems.

Crashes Windows 7  Time owned: more than 12 months
I've used this software successfully on Windows 95 and Windows XP, but today, after installing Windows 7 on my computer, I installed the ADMS-4B software, which installed ok, but when it was about finished reading my 857D, it crashed the computer (Blue screen of...). Repeated attempts yielded same results. Uninstalled the ADMS-4b, then reinstalled, but same problem again.

I'd like to hear stories (and solutions, hopefully) from others who've tried this with Windows 7.

Works As Advertised.  Time owned: 0 to 3 months
Purchased more or less as a accessory for my FT-897. Reports of the software being picky about USB/Serial interface cables is unfound here. Used the software and cable with a very old (Radio Shack circa early '90s) USB to Serial interface (on COM 9) and eveythigng worked fine. Software also works fine with a virety of USB CAT cables available on eBay.

In a nutshell, good product and good functionality.
