[WriteLog] Windows XP and parallel port

[Peter Egger]

Thank you very much fur all of your suggestions!
I installed and configured UserPort and wrote the right adress into =
WritLog.ini.
I tried to key three different transceivers:
With my Elecraft K1 I get very smooth keying. The tune option works also =
fine.
With my Elecraft K2 and Yaesu FT-1000MP keying is interrupted and when =
going to tune both rigs will only tune for a fraction of a second.=20
It seems that the parallel port of my notebook is very sensitive to what =
is connected to it.=20
The interface I am using is the same used by CT or TR-log: The emitter =
of a 2N2222A is connected to pin 1, the base is connected via a 1k ohm =
resistor to pin 17 and the collector is connected to the key jack of the =
transceiver. Ground connection is pin 18.
Should I use another kind of interface?
vy 73s,
Peter, HB9BMY
