[WriteLog] Window XP and LPT CW

[Phil Krichbaum]

	I'm still using 98SE because of all the XP and 2000 posts of problems with
WL cw. I get choppy cw also as well as choppy DVK. It is better if I shut
down AVG but not perfect like it used to be. It helps if I reboot every few
hours but then the problem gradually reappears. This problem was not always
be there. I forget which version of WL it started with.

Hey David/K6LL and Bill/AK0A (and the rest of the group)

This solve my problem with the LPT keying the transmitter.

Now the CW is very choppy.  I have shutdown all the unused
programs, ie AVG, BOClean, Internet connection...  the problems
appears to continue.

I am using a wireless mouse, could that be the problem????

Any ideas ???

Thanks
