Congrats to Rick N6XI on getting his setup going. But I am still having this
one remaining problem with my WL and DXD. The S02R has a problem on the
FT1000D side. If I have the mic hooked to the FT1000D via the cable supplied
from Top Ten and we have tried a new cable. I cant get the rig to send cw
via the computer. If I unplug the mic cable from the FT1000D it sends cw
perfectly. Now when I say it wont send cw thats is correct. It will key the
rig but not send cwIf I unplug the mic cable everything works perfect. Has
anyone else had that problem. This is the last remaining problem with WL and
DXD except getting the stubs selection set up and that is next. LMK PTL God
Bless, from bill brown k0uk
