Thanks for the response Randy.
WL is selecting the transmitting radio just fine. I can use the program to
direct CW to either radio. So I assume that the A/B selection is working OK.
My problem is that my headphones are not switching to radio two when I am
transmitting on radio one. I know this works somehow with TR and CT.
I assume the problem with WL is one of several possibilities:
A. I have overlooked something in my setup.
B. I need to modify my SO2R box to track a LPT pin that changes
state when transmitting.
C. There is no such pin and I have to buy a W5XD+ keyer to
accomplish headphone switching.
Option "C" is a little hard to accept because it means I have to spend more
money to duplicate hardware that I already have.
Maybe what I want to do isn't possible with WL?
73, Richard
