[WriteLog] RigBlaster PTT/COM1

[Rick Low]

Thanks Bob. Here's what works.

--Heil microphone with footswitch is plugged into front of RigBlaster.
RigBlaster is connected to the input of my SO2R box.
--RigBlaster PTT/VOX switch to "VOX", but rigs (2xIC756ProII) stay in PTT
mode
--PTT is still being sent from the parallel port and routed to the transmit
radio through the SO2R box. No need to try and send PTT on COM1 to key the
RigBlaster during voice keyer sending. WriteLog sound card wav files play
just fine from the function keys.

I don't know why it works. This will be a head-scratcher while I read some
more of the literature. If anyone needs a copy of my writelog.ini file will
be happy to send it.

73 Rick

It's been a while, but I think you have to flip the ptt/vox switch on the
rigblaster.

Worth a try!

This has got to be simple. I'm just missing it.

Trying to get WriteLog to send the PTT signal to my RigBlaster on COM1 so
that DVP audio from the computer will pass through the RigBlaster to the DX
Doubler switchbox that passes transmit audio to the transceivers.

I normally take PTT from the parallel port (have DirectIO on this XP
machine), as well as A/B switching.
Rig Left is on USB-COM4, Rig Right is on USB-COM6. Is there something in
Setup PORTS that will let me tell WriteLog to send PTT on COM1?

TIA, Rick
