[WriteLog] Need help on SO2R CW on 2 COM ports

[WA9ALS - John]

I doubt that's true - It sure isn't true for FSK RTTY, which uses the TxD
line for SHIFT.  Using DTR for CW is analogous.  Writelog provides a lockout
feature to ensure that 2 signals are not transmitted at the same time.

When you do CW in the Rttyrite windows, the Rttyyrite Port menu item control
which radio gets the PTT signal, but I'm not sure about the DTR CW signal.

Don,

Generally speaking, you need to use an external switching device to move the
CW keying from one radio to another.

Since you can only transmit on one radio at a time, this logic is
appropriate.

There are several devices commercially available (W5XD, TopTen, ZS4TX, etc.)
or you can homebrew one.
