OK, I think I see the problem - the SignaLink USB does not have a CAT  
connection and cannot be used to control or read the Radio VFO...

"Can I use the SignaLink USB to control my radio, or will I need a  
separate CAT interface?
The SignaLink USB is a sound card interface that provides the  
necessary hardware to operate all sound card digital and voice modes,  
but it does NOT provide the "CAT" (Computer Assisted Tuning) hardware  
needed to control the radio.  If you want to control your radio  
(tuning, band/mode selection, etc.), then you will need a separate CAT  
interface.  We suggest checking your radio manual for the radio  
manufacturer's CAT interface part number (CI-V, CT-x, etc.).  If you  
do not want to purchase a CAT interface from the radio manufacturer  
(these are usually more expensive), then we suggest searching the  
internet for a compatible unit.  NOTE:  Please see the question below  
about using the SignaLink USB with programs that offer CAT control."
