I have not yet tried the virtual device
router software that they have on their
website. I just didn't have time to
mess with it before SS. I started out
the contest and almost right away ran
into problems with cw jibberish. I know
someone here on this list mentioned that
putting a space as the first character
of each of the cw buffers solved their
microham problem.... so I tried that, and
for about an hour I didn't have a single
problem. But then the problem re-occured
although much less frequently.
I asked the folks at microham, how could
this be? Why would a leading space make
any difference and they did not think it
should matter - but it did.
But in the end, I was still frustrated that
the interface would send jibberish at the
worst times... such as in the middle of an
exchange with a weak but desperatly needed
mult. Argh! :) Probally not the reason
I only got 78/80 sections and not my sweep,
but it was still frustrating.
My next step is to try the virtual device
software they have on their site. Lex -
are you saying this absolutely solved the
cw jibberish problem for you, or was your
problem related to rig control and cw on
the same com port?

I also had trouble using the micorham usb interface
with Writelog this
weekend. I ended up downloading the virtual device
router and creating
separate
com ports for cw and rig control. That arrangement
worked fine.
