Steve, it doesn't work that way. When you check the RIG box and set PTT =
YES, you are telling WL to do PTT via CAT control - which you have on COM 4.
If you want PTT on com 1, you need to indicate that you want PTT on RTS on
the com port. If you check RIG on COM1, WL expects to be doing CAT rig
control - read freq etc.
