Don - I was finally able to resolve my problem. I ran the completely
uninstalled WL, cleaned the registry, disconnected all external sound cards and
serial connections to my radios. I then re-installed WL and upgraded to the
latest version. I reconnected the serial connections and just the TS-590 sound
card, then started WL from scratch. I got RTTYrite running and brought up
2-tone.
I saved the set-up and file, then closed WL and did a restart on my computer -
when it came back up, I was able to load WL and the test file I had created,
and everything now works... I probably did more than I really had to - but
drastic times call for drastic measures - thanks again for your help and hope
to contact you on the NAQP-CW this weekend.

Some information I found by searching Google:

Both seem to point to running WriteLog's "Sound board mixer control" program to
set the sound card for WriteLog. You find "Sound board mixer control" in the
Writelog group in the Start menu.

Subject: [WriteLog] Problem with RTTY AFSK
During the recent NAQP-RTTY contest, I was unable to transmit RTTY (receive was
ok).
I've played with my settings and still no joy.
When I open up WriteLog, I get a pop-up box with "Error setting up device names
for sound, Vista-style"
When I click out of that window - I get another pop-up box with:
"Failed to start recording loop. Is the sound board in use?"
"waveInOpen failed Attempted to open with an unsupported
wave-form-audio format"
When transmitting - sometimes (depending on settings) my rig would indicate a
transmit condition, but no audio was sent (nothing heard on TX monitor, no
deflection on the ALC or Power meters).
I was able to resolve the immediate problem by switching in SignaLink-USB that
I use on my back-up Rig, though I had lost a few hours of the contest before I
did that.
Here are my settings:
WriteLog (Version 12.05K)
Setup>Ports: DVK Type = Windows sound board (have also tried "None"
Setup>Sound board = Only enabled Receiver Listen Loop
RttyRite Window>TU Type "XMMT-ocx" Selected (Using 2-Tone)
TNC Setup: Only "Show TNC buttons" and "Show TNC menu"
Selected
2-Tone Settings: Correct CODEC selected - RX and TX Left selected - AFSK TX:
PTT "No" selected (But have tried DTR and RTS to no avail)
Radio (TS-590S with S/W V. 2.02)
Menu settings (I've changed a lot of these in trying to troubleshoot)
060 - TX Inhibit = Off
061 - COM port Baudrate =57,600
062 - USB port bBaudrate = 57,600
063 - Audio Input Line Selection for Data = USB (Changed to Acc2 when using the
SignaLink)
064 - Audio Level of USB Input for Data = 3
065 - Audio level of USB Output for Data = 3
066/067 - Same as 064/065 but for Acc2
069 - VOX operation with Data (USB/Acc2) Input = On
070 - Data VOX delay time = 40mS
071 - VOX Gain for USB Audio Input = 3
072 - VOX Gain for Acc2 = 4
Operating System = Windows 10
Any help would be appreciated. My next step is sending this to the repair shop
and have the sound-board replaced.
