[WriteLog] Orion keying problem solved

[Bill@AA6TT.com (William H. Hein)]

My W5XD/Writelog keyer is now keying the Orion properly.

 

It was a wiring problem.  I somehow was ignorant all this time that the W5XD
keyer uses the ring and tip, not tip and sleeve, on the CW Left and CW Right
1/8" miniphonojacks.  I resoldered the cable (the Orion keys from an
external keyer, when the internal keyer is switched off, thru the tip and
sleeve) and everything is now hunky dory.

 

My other rigs have mono keying jacks for external keyers and worked OK with
the W5XD cable wired straight thru to a stereo connector.
