One option is to download and install the program Direct I/O, which will give you access to the printer port under XP. I don't know about Vista. The program has a free trial, then it's $29. Download
RTTYrite by itself will highlight only a callsign preceded by "DE " (unless you turn off that feature). Fewer and fewer stations are using "DE " these days. I have just recently stopped using it. The

Is there a way to prevent stations that I work on my run frequency from appearing in the bandmap? After a while, the bandmap becomes extremely cluttered with red callsigns. Thanks. Dave Hachadorian,
Hi all, Like others, I only get TWO worked stations showing on the bandmap, and after that, they are replaced by new calls. HOWEVER.......... if you use the RIT to tune folk in, then these will show
I'm running into a blank wall here vis-à-vis trying to locate the "real" WriteLog config file (writelog.ini), which I know is not the one in the Windows directory (although there is one there, it's n
Somehow Writelog has started giving me window titles in the German language. For example, when I go to export an ADIF, the "save as" window pops up with the title "kopie speichern unter." Any idea ho
I used a laptop on Field Day, and had the same type of problem. Then I noticed down in the system tray that the Wireless unit was trying to connect to something. It turns out that a neighbor near the
Hi Nick, Why TWO sound cards? For so2r, just one card, with left radio on the left channel and right radio on the right channel, is all that is needed, unless you are running Win98. However, the late
When you sign the adif or cabrillo with tqsl, you can choose a date range. Or, you can just upload the entire log every day. There's no problem with uploading dupes. Dave Hachadorian, K6LL Yuma, AZ _

All of a sudden my so2r rtty setup is acting up, and I can't figure out what I've done. This is with two instances of mmtty in two different directories, fsk on com4 and com5. If I'm calling cq on ra

Soundblasters have worked for me in the past, too. I run SB Live! 24 bit. The only drawback to Soundblasters is that they generally do not have a separate MIC IN and LINE IN. One jack does either fun
The main reason I like to turn off scan for DE is in a pileup situation such as when you call CQ and copy something like the following response: DE FRYT89ROS6K7WM45GM In this case, the guy with the f
This is one of Writelog's unique features, and probably the primary reason Writelog is arguably the best RTTY contesting program. New text is always printed above the line. The line moves down the pa
