Hi Randy and All,
Brian, W3BW, pointed me in the right direction, the solution is so
simple, LSB is really FSK must be selected in order for the Fkeys to
work...but what about CW?
Wayne, ..... But..... every time I re-start the program, that must be
checked again even though I saved the configuration.....Seems like it
would stay configured since all other features stay configured. Do I
have a local problem in how the configuration is saved? Or can I make
an ini entry to enable LSB is really FSK? Without enabling LSB is
really FSK, how do I make the Fkeys work in CW?
Perhaps with every restart, some people would be in a different
mode....seems to me if you change modes, that is the time to change
that feature, not every time you start the program. Is that the way
you designed it, Wayne??
At least I have the "fix" now.....!
73s to all,
Grant
