[WriteLog] CW direct keying

[Jay WS7I]

Been using that simple transistor device on each platform since Win98.  
When I switched from parallel to serial.  Works fine on XP, Win7, and 
Mac.  Single most important thing is junking Norton, McAfee or anything 
other than Microsoft's Security Essentials.

Also Wayne's suggestion on priority does work at least on Win7.

I would also suggest looking at what junk is in the startup file and 
eliminating most of it.

BTW I have tried opto's and have used them but correctly sinking the PTT 
and getting FSK to work is harder tho with a resistance substitution box 
easy enough.  But the resister varies even on the same model of rig that 
you might be using.  A generic 1K or 1500 ohms doesn't work very well.
