I use Logic 9 for logging. If I bring up Logic before
WriteLog the rig control and cw port will not work. The
port for the rig is grabbed by Logic and the CW port for
WriteLog is grabbed by something else possibly another
port used in Logic I just do not remember for sure.
Bringing up WriteLog first "solves" that problem. With
out virtual comports this is going to happen. Try starting
WriteLog before anything else on the machine. I suspect
your selected ports will work.  GL es 73

Patrick,

It sounds like the com port you have selected for CW does match a com port 
in Win7 and that's why you are getting the CW to key.  Check the Device 
Manager in Win7 to see if the com port you are using for rig control in WL 
exists in the Win7 list of ports.  If it shows the com port exists it may be

in use by some other device/program.  If so, try using a different port.

73,
Gary AL9A

I just got a win 7 machine and having a problem getting the radio to talk
to writelog. I'm using a usb to serial adapter and have it all set up.
I can send cw to the rig the rig keys up and sends code but when I try to 
connect to the radio
is says no rig ? Using a IC-756 and have it configured the same as on the 
win XP machine but
cant get it to talk in win 7?
Thanks,
Patrick
