[WriteLog] pk232 problem with clone window

[Don Hill AA5AU]

When using a PK232, you have to edit the writelog.ini file. I found this in the reflector archives which might help:

If your writelog.ini file does not have a [PORTS] section, you may need to create one. Open writelog.ini in notepad. Anywhere in the
file, add these lines EXACTLY AS THEY ARE TYPED HERE:

[PORTS]
Com1=9600,n,8,1,

If you have a [PORTS] section, make the appropriate changes to the Com1 entry if there is a Com1 entry. It's possible there is an
"x" at the end of the entry. If so, delete the "x", but leave the comma at the end.

Let us know if this works or not. This was from previous versions of WL. I don't know if anything has changed as far as a [PORTS]
section is concerned.

Subject: [WriteLog] pk232 problem with clone window

Hello..I am trying to use a pk232 in a receive only situation in a clone window but

when I try to pick the comport and tnc type I get a message that  its trying to initialize host mode

but then errors out saying "pk232 initialization failed.try again??"

I don't know why this is happening..I can copy rtty no probs using hyperterminal with comport 1

set to 9600 baud 8,n,1 but now it wont work within writelog. 

As a side note..this configuration has worked before for a long time so something has changed

but I cant figure it out.  Any help is most appreciated.

Thanks
