Rich,

I had been using WriteLog on a machine using Windows 98 for quite some
time and never ran into that problem.  And I too went a year or more
without upgrading and again, no problem.

In your case, I would begin looking at what is common in this problem,
and that's your radio and any outboard CW keying devices.  For all 3 of
your PC's to begin exhibiting the same problem at the same time is too
coincidental.

Wish I could be more help.  Good luck!

Bob, N3FR

Subject: [WriteLog] CW Function not working

Hello to all,
On my three contest station computers all running Windows 98se and
Writelog ver 10.41a.

Any use of the Writelog program to generate CW characters produces
intermitent dashes and dots. This happens while useing the program in CW
Keyboard,F key file messages and logged call entries. In short I can not
get any usable CW. I am useing the LPT Port as the keyer to the radio. 

My concern is that this problem has suddenly started. The CW function
was last used at my station in January 2005 during a CW contest. While
checking the computers for this weekend I found this problem. Nothing
has been changes at the station and the problem is the same on all three
computers. Two of the computers have never been used on the internet.
The third computer is used on the internet but has never been connected
to the other two. Yet the problem is the same in all three computers.

I have since reinstalled the Windows98se and Writelog ver 10.41a
program. The problem has not corrected.
Please help,
Rich AA2MF
