I'm using Window 98 SE with a 1Ghz PIII and had a terrible time with coppy CW. Using Com 1 for the Rig (FT-1000MP), and using the DTR line for CW on the same port. It was so bad at time I had to shut down and re-boot. It would straighten out for a short time and then sound very ragged again. I second the motion on a macro for "turn antennae to azimuth".
