Same results here. WriteLog is unusable.

Never any stutter before. Don't know what has changed.

Subject: [WriteLog] MK II CW suddenly choppy
Since trying to get started in the ARRL DX CW contest this weekend I've
noticed a problem with the sending in my MK II that has never occurred
before. On my CQ message the keyer will intermittently pause for a moment
in the middle of my call or the word TEST resulting in a space being
inserted in the string. For example the message "CQ TEST AL9A" will
sometimes send as "CQ TES T AL 9A", "CQ TE ST AL9A", "CQ TEST A L9A ", or
"CQ TEST AL 9A". The pattern seems completely random.
I know it is not RF related because it will occur even when the IC-7600
has
its CW setting set to break in off. This essentially makes the radio a
code
oscillator and no RF is being keyed. I tried to think of anything that
has
changed recently and the only things I came up with since the last CW
contest were to upgrade WriteLog to 10.83E and install a new HP Officejet
4500 printer. I went into System Configuration and turned off the HP
Digital Imaging software in the Startup folder and the printer itself.
Problem is still there. I went back to an earlier CW contest log in
WriteLog dating prior to the 10.83E upgrade and the keying problem is now
present with that message buffer too.
System is Windows Vista 32 bit, IC-7600, MK II, PW-1 amp. Anyone else run
into to this problem with WriteLog 10.83E?
73,
Gary AL9A
