Ed,

This not a "fault" of any software or hardware ... simply a lack
of a common interface.
The potential solutions are:
1) the ability of Writelog to use DTR for "software FSK"
2) adding the capability to map TxD to DTR in microHAM Router
to support the Writelog Software FSK
3) modifying the (third party) MMTTY plug-in for Writelog to
allow specifying the output (PTT) port directly in the
plug-in (using MMTTY.INI)
4) Adding EXTFSK as a choice in the RTTYrite "Ports" list so
EXTFSK can be passed to the plug-in.
In the meantime, USB Interface II will work with WriteLog and
the MMTTY plugin if MMTTY is configured for AFSK (Sound + COM-TxD).
