Bill,
Since you are running CTDos, did you exit Win98 and restart in DOS?
If not, try that.

Subject: [ct-user] CT can't read frequency from radio
I am using a Pentium-class computer, that normally runs WriteLog
perfectly, with CT for DOS under Windows 98SE and using a Kenwood
TS-940. I started with the current version 10.02.008 but noticed
that:
1) When logging a contact, CT would first shift to 20 meters and
then
log the call, power, and time on 20 meters. I had to correct the
logged
entry band and then shift CT to my actual operating band to
continue.
Each logged entry would repeat this process.
2) While Alt-F1 worked to shift band down, Alt-F2 had no effect at
all.
3) My TopTen antenna switch operating from LPT1 would not follow the
chosen band.
4) A frequency could be written to my TS-940 from a spot or the log
entry, but neither the band or frequency could be read from the
radio to
CT.
5) Log entries simply show the lower band edge, such as 7.000 or
14.000,
regardless of actual radio frequency, unless a frequency has been
previously read into the radio, in which case that frequency shows
in
the log or on an Alt-F3 packet spot regardless of the radio
frequency.
I could find no way to alter this behavior by adjustments to the
BIOS or
to the batch files or to the CT setup data.
In desperation, I installed an earlier version of CT, 10.02.002 but
found no improvement. Trying still earlier versions, I found that
9.74
did not have the most serious problems (1) (2) and (3) although the
remaining problems persisted. The contest was in progress, so I
continued this way.
Can anyone tell me the cause and cure of this problem?
Thanks very much!
Bill N1AU
