[WriteLog] Write Log Rig Control

[Bob Naumann - N5NJ]

Jim,

The column selection button is to only to select the CW port.

To define the radio control, you have to select the proper radio in the Com 4 row.

In mine, I'm using Com 3 and I have attached an image of the port set up window so you can see what it's supposed to look like.

73,

Bob N5NJ
