Hi,

I have a question about using Writelog's DVK function and the
PTT line that I hope someone can clarify for me.  

I would like to use the DVK during the upcoming ARRL June VHF
contest.  Since we (limited multi-op) run high power, we can't
use VOX (hot-switching 1500 W at 432 will vaporize a relay).
My question is: when using the DVK function, does WriteLog 
give a PTT signal that I can use to turn on the sequencer that
will in turn take the preamp out of line, switch the relays,
key the amp and then key the transmitter?  Or will the DVK only
key the radio via the VOX mode?

Thanks & 73,  Arliss  W7XU
