[WriteLog] SO2R CW Keying

Hi Crew,

I've been using WriteLog for three years now, and have always used 
serial port keying. No problems. Now, I'm working on getting SO2R 
going for the first time, and would like to do it without adding 
external boxes. That is, just WriteLog and two serial port hookups 
that do both control and keying. I tried this a few weeks ago, using 
two serial ports, with a separate connection to each radio. I could 
key either radio, but not both. And, of course, maybe it was cockpit 
error. I didn't have time to pursue it then, but I would like to now. 

I'm working from an IBM laptop that has one "real" serial port, and 
an additional serial port from a Quatech PCMCIA adapter, and that 
port works fine for both control and sending CW. That laptop also has 
a parallel port available, but I would rather stick to serial if I 
can. Is there a way to do this? 

73,

Jim K9YC
