Mike,

I accept you have problems, but you don't need to place them at the door of
the guy who writes the code.  The test is "does it work on 95% of machines"
My estimate will be that it does.  Certainly works on mine. For the 5% look
at your machines - not the application.

I'm really torn here between a problem and the result.  Every time I have to
come down on the side of the software writer who spends hours writing code
to work in an unknown environment.

My neighbours TV goes beserk when I opererate 20M SSB.  Mine is OK. He
thinks the problem is my radio.  I think it is his TV.

Do we have some common ground?

Hi Paul
Very disappointed at loss of support for DOS, which I need to use
because the morse generated by Windows versions for the Memory keyers
continues to be very erratic on either of my 2 computers. Oh well, I'll
just have to test everyones patience and use the hand pump instead !
