[WriteLog] Occasional ptt dropout in mmtty/writelog

I experience this same ptt dropout problem with mmtty/writelog.  I notice it 
most often when I send a report on the 2nd radio, after the first radio has 
been interrupted.  But it doesn't happen all the time, once every hour or 
so.

I am running WindowsXP Pro, mmtty version 1.65 and ptt keying through the 
Multi-Keyer.  RTTY keying is through separate COM ports.

N6DE mentioned this problem in his naqp writeup, and it
reminded me that the same thing happened here three times
during the 10 hour contest:
------------------------
There was one intermittent problem on our second
station where the PTT would occasionally drop in the middle
of a message, but
our MMTTY window in Writelog kept printing the transmit
message as if it still
still sending it.  I remember seeing this problem at NN6NN
for WPX RTTY, but
still don't know what is causing it.
-------------------------

My setup is win98se on a Pentium 200, TS-850's with PTT
digitally commanded over the rig control RS-232 lines. WL
10.46G, MMTTY 1.64B. Any ideas for a solution? I searched
the archives, but couldn't find reference to this issue.
