[WriteLog] Com port availability/access

[Don Cassel]

>From Writelog's Help.

WRITELOG.INI [Ports]
[Ports]
The settings from the Setup Ports dialog:

dvkport=2 
dvktype=2 
cwtype=3 
cwport=1
AntRelayOnLpt3=YES,1 
AntRelayonLPT1=YES
Comm1Used=CW,0

The COMn:= settings are used by the WriteLog Packet window and by the RTTY
window. There are separate COMn: settings in the [RIGS] section used only
for rigs.

COM1:=9800,n,8,1,
COM2:=4800,e,7,1,

There are 4 "slots" available for WriteLog rig interfacing. By default,
CommSlot1 is COM1:, but you can change that by changing the number on the
right of the equal sign. These settings are not used for RTTY or for packet

CommSlot1=1
CommSlot2=2

In this example, the third and fourth slots are on COM7 and COM8. COM15 is
as high as is supported.

CommSlot3=7
CommSlot4=8

Pardon me if this has already been posted:
I have a laptop wherein com1-com3 are allocated by system stuff (modem,
etc..). No "real com ports" but USB and virtual com software allow me to
create and use com 4-8. I control my Yaesu FT-2000 on com4, cw on com 5,
RTTY on com7 and aux on com8. As I am a new Writelog user - I do not see a
way to allocate Writelog to use com 4 thru 8. Ideas, suggestion would be
greatly appreciated.
