BryanI appreciate the "danger" in which case you can temporarily disconnect
from the internet while conducting the test.My major point is if you are
troubleshooting a problem that many others do not appear to have it is likely
something in your local computer environment. You have to think through all the
things that might be different between your system and others. One usual
difference is virus programmes which have been shown to impact various pieces
of ham radio software. I'm simply suggesting you not overlook that
possibility.GL73, Dean

Dean,
Unless disconnected from the Internet, that's very unsafe.There MUST be a safe
alternative.
In any case, in order to know what does/doesn't work,
one makes only one change at a time. I'll try Ron NØAT's
suggestion before entertaining alternatives.

Also just in case it is an issue could you try disabling any antivirus
software. I typically do not run antivirus during contest activity. I have
found any number of strange things happening with the antivirus and/or malaware
software running.Nothing suggests thus explicitly but seems when all else fails
try to eliminate potential problems.73 Dean

Thanks Ron,
I'll give it a try. I was hoping the fix involved beer. ;-)

Bryan,
I had similar speed changing issues with Writelog and Winkeyer. I solved the
problem by turning the speed pot on the Winkeyer fully CCW, and controlled the
speed only with Writelog. I do not touch the Winkeyer speed pot, just leave it
fully CCW.

After installing WL v11.37B per Wayne's recommendation, I tried it out during
the RAC Canada Day contest. I had similar issues with the speed changing all on
its own.
The difference was that I didn't see a "Timeout" message.
What to do now?
tnx es vy 73,Bryan WA7PRC

The latest releases of Writelog versions 11 and 12, including the demo version,
have improvements to WinKey compatibility. Whether you can use or try them
depends on what OS your WriteLog is installed in:
Windows 9x -- you have pretty much the state of the art, circa 1999, already.
Windows XP or higher--you'll need $30 to upgrade to the latest V11
(https://writelog.com/ordering)
Windows 7 or higher--version 11 works as above, as does version 12 and you have
a 3rd, try-before-you-buy alternative:
