You're right, Ed.  I typed it wrong.  And I gather you've taken it into
account that WriteLog produces no sidetone.

I had to play with the settings a bunch of times each time I wanted to send
CW with WriteLog, then learned to do Save Configuration.  Of course, I don't
remember which setting the program "forgot" before I did this.  :) 73, Frank
