[TRLog] Knwd 570 CW interface and config file

[Ron K6KYJ]

I had some fun last night on 80 CW.  I was using parallel port keying and the modem connection (for Telnet) timed out. The resulting message window interrupted TR and locked the keyer in a steady tone while I was working a KH6.  Had to rush to kill break-in mode and then I got TR reset.   It's the only hazard of running TR with lots of other windows open.  I like the ability to keep TR open while check Geoclock, Telnet, and DX Summit.  The only time I run TR solely in DOS is in an intensive contest like SS where I only come up for air and nothing else.

Cal, I don't know about keying through the serial port, but CW works fine in
a DOS window under 98SE if you use parallel port keying.  On my slow PC I've
found that you need to shut down background tasks to avoid some occasional
"slurring" of the CW though.
