I have a few old dying brain cells that remind me that some Toshiba laptop
just never worked right with TR.  Not sure if that is your problem.

I would try using the USE BIOS KEY CALLS command to see if that perhaps
solves the problem.  Could also try USE IRQS, but I am less optimistic
about that.

PS: I have heard 4L1UF a few days this week.  First time I have heard 4X
since our QSO.  However, he seems to have lots of noise and doesn't hear
anywhere as well as I am hearing him.  My antenna system on both TX and
RX are much better than they were when we worked.
