[WriteLog] RTTY problem

Rob,

Sorry you are having problems but it sounds more like an MMTTY problem 
rather than a Writelog problem.

I am having a weird problem here and believe it is also an MMTTY rather 
than a Writelog problem.  Everything is fine if I use the external 
keypad with the micro Keyer ii.  I worked VP8GSI with that combo on RTTY 
and CW but when I attempt to send RTTY from the computer keyboard within 
Writelog I apparently am transmitting a distorted signal.  As the 
external keypad with the MicroKeyer ii does not allow me to send call 
sign or contest numbers things get too cumbersome contesting.

This morning I went through the micro Keyer ii and Writelog set up and 
got only as far as page three, setting up the MIsc. tab in MMTTY.  The 
TX Port is set for Sound and the other 2 choices are grayed out and I am 
unable to change them to COM-TXD (FSK) for the TX Port.  So I am stuck 
there.  Weird.

But at least I am inside and warm.  It's going down to about 0 F tonight 
here on Long Island.

I literally have to cursor down during my confirmation message, after having logged the QSO, and click on the AFC button then quickly go back up to the entry window and put the cursor in the call field and click. How do I get it to stop invoking AFC every time I log a QSO?
