[Trlog] Reporting Winkeyer problems

[w9cf at arrl.net]

For anyone having problems with a Winkeyer or Winkeyer clone sidetone
misbehaving in trlinux, recording the serial port communication between
trlinux and the Winkeyer would be helpful in finding the problem. You
can do that as follows.

1. Install socat if it isn't already installed.
2. Make a convenient directory for the files.
Here I call it /home/schmidt/wktest
3. Create a LOGCFG.DAT file with the winkeyer port pointing to the file
ttylink in this same directory
MY CALL = OK1RR
CONTEST = CQ WW
CW TONE = 0
PADDLE MONITOR TONE = 0
WINKEYER PORT = SERIAL /home/schmidt/wktest/ttylink
4. In a different terminal than the one where you will run trlog,
but in the same working directory (wktest here) run
socat -x -v /dev/ttyACM1,rawer,b1200 PTY,link=ttylink,rawer 2>debug.out
replace /dev/ttyACM1 with your Winkeyer serial device. You should now see
the file ttylink in this working directory. socat connects
ttylink to the Winkeyer port, and prints a human readable copy to debug.out.
5. Fire up trlog without reading STDCFG.DAT
trlog NOSTDCFG
6. Push F1 to send something.
7. exit trlog and send me the debug.out file.
