Has anybody had a problem in XP, where it will only activate one COM
Port at a time?
I have had the same setup in the past working, but the last RTTY contest
I was in was the Roundup.
I tried to use it on Field Day and every time I tried to enable the
keying for FSK, then it shuts down the other port that was used for
radio frequency. It's acting like an IRQ problem but in XP I don't seem
to be able to change that as it is automatically managed. I again spent
some time tonight trying it with no luck.
An example of my problem is:
The radio is on COM 1 and Writelog/MMtty is on COM 2, I set my radio in
Writelog to COM 1 and then set the port in RTTYrite to COM 2. As soon as
I do that it tells me COM 1 "Can't open Com 1" AND I lose radio control
"No Rig". Not until I move the radio over to Com 1 and reconfigure my
ports in WL to Com 1 do I get radio control back. Then I try configuring
RTTYrite to Com 2 and the same thing happens all over.
Has anyone else seen anything like this as I have spent hours trying
different combinations to no avail, but it sure seems like I have an IRQ
sharing problem.
Thanks for any suggestions.
