Thing is are you familiar with Writelog's  Digirite program.
I am not familiar with Digirite - have never looked at it.

I somehow think my problem is a menue setting with MicroHam DXP.
There are no menu settings in DXP that affect the sound card.

*ANY* sound card software should be configured to use "Line (DXP)"
- Left channel for transmit and DXP RX (DXP) - left channel for
receive (on the main receiver).  If you have a dual receiver rig
and the software supports dual receive, the second receive channel
should be configured for the rig's second/sub RX as DXP RX (DXP)
- *right* channel.

Receive audio level should be adjusted *separately* with the encoder
for the main (left) and sub (right) channels.  "DXP RX" has *NO*
Windows mixer component so receive level does not respond to any
"slider" in the application or Windows driver/Sound Control Panel.

When I activate Digirite view from inside Writelog it reports
"failed to open wave input"  could that be because of a DXP menue
choice?

Again, there is  no sound card menu choice in DXP.  The error message
you quote would almost certainly indicate a configuration error in
WriteLog/Digirite or that you have disabled application access to the
"microphone" (any audio input) in Windows -> Privacy & Security ->
Microphone.

I *DO NOT HAVE* the current version of Writelog *and* have never
built/installed Digirite.  I can not help you there.

         Good Afternoon Joe

                I hate to be a pest but......   your previous response really got me going with

                Writelog and  MicroHam DXP.   Thanks again ...... Thing is are you familiar

                with Writelog's  Digirite program.    I somehow think my problem is a menue

                setting with MicroHam DXP.   I can not get Digirite to work with Writelog

                    I used to enjoy that program when I was able to use a  MicroHam Digikeyer 2.

                Digirite ask for sound info.    When I activate Digirite view from inside Writelog

                it reports  "failed to open wave input"  could that be because of a DXP menue

                choice?    Information on the web seems to pertain to OLD ver. of Writelog?

                I am down to my last day to figure this out as I was hoping to enter World Wide Digi

                 test tomorrow.

                         In any cas Joe  all the best     73   BoB WA1FCN

In DXP Setup Set 1.2 "CAT DTR" = None
By default, WriteLog asserts DTR on the CAT port for most current

         Good Evening All

             Anyone using Writelog and MicroHam DXP   FTDX 5K ?

                     Writelog and then re-installed it same thing? I just started learning this DXP a few

              days ago so far I like Microham Digi Keyer Router menue better.....   I got frequency read out

                 OK..   MMTY is  fine  and WSJT is fine...... I really wanted to use Writelog with Digirite

                      in World Wide Digi  test.  I believe I can use WSJT in contest mode?

                             Ok thanks for any leads...... 73 BoB WA1FCN
