Hi Brian,

Yes that is a problem caused when WriteLog's RTTYrite module is left (or
defaulted) in the RTTY mode using a PK-232 and its serial port is assigned
to a virtual port assigned by the USB driver. This can happen even if you do
not own a PK-232.

Try the following, do not start the USB device drivers. Start WriteLog and
the RTTYrite module, now you should be able to assign the proper mode and
make sure the PK-232 comm port is not assigned to a virtual port. Be sure to
save these new settings with W/L and exit the program. WriteLog will
remember these new settings.

Now you should be able to start the USB driver and its device manager and
use W/L in FSK with the hardware of your choice.

Hopefully this work-around will solve the problem.

73,
Eric - VE3GSI.
