Got back to using my contest setup after two years away.  I thought I had it 
all going OK, but quickly realized that I was having a problem whenever I 
aborted a CW message using the <esc> key.  

Here's what's happening.  When Writelog first starts up, my setup reverts to 
'old W5XD keyer' and I have to go in every time and change to the MK-1100.  At 
start-up neither the hand key nor the CW messages key the transmitter.  If I 
toggle the left-right switch on the speed control keying works OK.  If I abort 
a message using the <esc> key Keying is again inoperative, but toggling the 
left-right switch restres it.  I went into help looking for an answer.  Help 
says use <ctl-C> to abort a CW message, but it has no effect.

I also noticed that when in timed CQ mode stopping the CQ by making an entry in 
the call field would also lock up keying, so I couldn't use this mode.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,  Wayne N1WR, Lusby, MD


I'm using ver 10.54C.
