Bill, while I'm not glad to hear that you are having the same problem as me
I am relieved to know that someone else is having problems like myself
which tells me that something is being missed between the implementation of
UserPort and WL. Okay, it very well maybe an issue with XP and how it is
controlling my computer but the bottom line is that, like you, I can get
another program to properly control the two radio interfaces I have and key
the radio through a DX Doubler SO2R box but WL is not consistently seeing
the radio control interfaces and has never keyed either radio in the CW
mode.
I am still hoping that someone can provide more input on UserPort and WL.
My pc uses a PCI interface for COM3 (FT1000MP MkV) and a standard system
COM1 for the second radio (FT847). LPT1 is the standard system port.
I tried your suggestion of using:
cwtype=2
cwport=6
but WL still recognized 0x0378 as LPT2.
Is anyone who is using direct-io had similar problems or has that worked
flawessly?

Bob,
I am wrestling with the same problem. So, please, if you get any
meaningful help, please forward it to me.
For what it's worth, I changed 2 lines in the writelog.ini file as
follows.
cwtype=2
cwport=6
Now Writelog recognized ltp-1 but still does NOT key.
I was able to get ltp-1 to key under another logging program (Logic 6)
which uses a different driver (not UserPort) so I know the port is working.
If I had any hair left, I'd be tearing it out over this problem.
Thanks and 73... Bill K3WA

I am running XP and cannot get UserPort to work properly. Following the
instructions provided by UserPort I added LPT1 with 0x378-0x37B. After
selecting Update, Start and Exit and starting WriteLog I find that LPT2 is
selectable in the setup screen, not LPT1. When I select both CW and DVK
using LPT2 the sound card generates audio just fine but when switching to CW
I cannot get it to generate at CW at all.
Any ideas on what my problme might be?
