Hi Goetz,
this weekend I didn't use my PTCIIe, I tried MMTTY for the first time.
I had this same problem regularly in the past using the PTCIIe with WF1B, the
only solution I could find was restarting the PTC and the software...
Seems to be a PTC-problem ???? I did a lot of tests with different computers
and it always happened when least expected. This seems only to happen when an
important multiplier calls you :-)
I always thought it was a problem somewhere in my setup but now I don't feel
alone anymore...

Subject: [WriteLog] Strang things with WL in WPX RTTY
Hello all!
The recent WPX RTTY contest was only my second contest using Writelog.
I noticed two peculiarities and have no explanation for them.
2) My primary RTTY TNC is a PTC-II. It is connected to the PC via the
onboard COM2 at 19200Bd. There are NO IRQ or EA address conflicts
reported by Windows XP Home. CPU speed is 2.3 GHz, 512MB of RAM.
The FT1000MP is keyed with FSK signals generated by the PTC-II.
That's what I use with Writelog. Parallel to this I have MMTTY running
with the onboard soundsystem. Gives me a great tuning indicator and - most
important "dual" receive capability. Norton Internet Security and Norton
AntiVirus are deactivated.
Now for the first time ever I noticed the following: Without any indication
why, the receive print in the RTTYRITE window was slowed down by several
seconds, hampering fast operation. I had to key in what was shown without
any
delay by MMTTY. This happened a total of three times. Each time I was doing
Auto-CQ and fairly busy working the stations that called me. To cure this
problem, I had to close Writelog AND turn the PTC-II OFF (and on again).
Were there similar experiences by others? What may be the cause?
