   As Wayne pointed out, WL will not asset the PTT if you are just speaking 
into the microphone.

   You can (and may prefer to) use a footswitch to activate the PTT when 
speaking live on the air.  The advantage of a footswitch is
that other noise in the shack, local conversations, etc will not trip the VOX 
on the radio.

   If you are decide to use a SO2R two-radio setup, the W5XD Multi-keyer+ will 
route the footswitch to the rig which has the current
transmit focus.

A couple of weeks ago I put the lines within quotes below on the reflector
but I did not get any ideas from you folks. So I make another try. The
question is: Using the mic connected to the sound board's mic in connector,
do I need to use VOX ON on the rig? I have the impression that Writelog
should key the rig also in this case.

"Hello Users of Writelog,
I have a problem with audio from the microphone in my setup.
I use W98SE, WL v 10.36G.

In Setup/ports I have marked:
COM3   Rig Kenwood (TS-440S)   Baud rate   Auto    Poll  checked  Comm PTT=Yes
LPT1   CW
DVK type    Sound Board (SB Live/7F in test)

All mode PTT on CW Port RTS  checked

CW PTT/Command rig on COM port   checked

In CW everything is OK, PTT works fine when sending via Fx or ALT-K.

In SSB, PTT works also OK when sending pre-recorded messages via Fx and the
audio is OK. VOX is off.

But when using the mic from the headset nothing happens, PTT doesn't work.
I have understood that it should.

So, what am I missing? Any help would be appreciated."
