[WriteLog] Difficulty with MMTTY and WL

[WG0M at aol.com]

I am seeking help.  Yesterday while checking the rigs before the NAQP  RTTY 
contest I noticed that CQ or Exchange sent messages were being  truncated 
before the complete message was sent.  The point at which the  message was 
truncated was not consistent to a point where the transmitted  signal being 
send has no dittle to it.  I am running SO2R and  found this scenario the same 
on both rigs.
 
 
Operating System is W98SE and current versions of WL and MMTTY.  The  
computer has been rock solid for years.
I have a Byterunner card installed in order to have more com ports  
available.  So....I decided to do SO1R and moved the Run radio  ptt/fsk cable 
(normally connected the Byterunner spider cable) over to Com  1 port of the 
computer.  Now the transmissions were not truncated.  
 
I reseated the card, removed and reinstalled the card drivers and the  
problem remains.  I checked out how the rig is working on CW and everything  
works.  The messages are not cut short.  (note the card has nothing to  do with 
CW operation)
 
I fear the card is bad.  One thing I did notice in Device manager  COM/LPT, 
I used to see COMM 5,6,7 and 8.
Now I see Comms 4,5,6 and 7 after I reinstalled the drivers.  So,  
something has changed.
 
 
 
My last test will be to get the latest drivers and install them.  I  did 
uninstall and reinstall MMTTY but nothing changed
