_________________________________________________________ I had a similar problem trying to get MMTTY to use Com4. WriteLog used Com4 ok for CW keying and my external modem worked there too, but MMTT

_________________________________________________________ Thanks, Dave. I wish ALL contest sponsors would post a list like this on their websites. So much confusion would be avoided! -- Bill, W6WRT _
* Add %O (RIT clear), %L (log the QSO), and %W (wipe the Entry Window) commands to CW/RTTY/SSB messages. On my IC-746PRO, the %L and %W work fine, but the %O does not work at all. Any ideas? -- Bill,

Right, I wouldn't edit the Registry in this case, I'd just reinstall WriteLog and let it overwrite the registry entries. Or see below for an even better answer. If it's taking you forever, you're doi
