Hi Steve,

Would you tell me which manual you are looking at that describes "GP" and
how to get it?

There are at least two (2) ways to download a WriteLog Manual, and there is
"Help" from within V12.18F. None of them describe "%GP" that I can find.

Hi Jeff,

>From the WriteLog manual:

the letters "GP" -- WriteLog polls the rig through its COM port driver to
detect the end PTT. WriteLog invokes this polling only if the message is
otherwise empty, that is, sends no CW, RTTY or SSB WAV messages. Therefore
make sure there are no blank spaces in the message. Note that programming
%GK to invoke an external (non-WriteLog) DVK does otherwise leave the
message blank, and is processed along with the %GP in the order they appear.
So %GKnn followed by %GP enables WriteLog to use an external DVK as if it
were a supported one as long as the %GK has the effect of getting the rig's
PTT set to on. WriteLog ignores %GP if the rig driver does not support PTT
polling. Only certain WriteLog rig drivers support this feature. Currently,
only the Elecraft K3 rig driver is supported.
The macros such as this can be found in the help file under "CW and RTTY and
Voice Memory Setup" 
Thanks,

Steve N9OH
