Received an e-mail from a friend overseas who is having a problem sending CW
via his LPT port. This has been working in the past. I don't know if any
changes where made but I did have him confirm that the correct port and PC
Generates is selected under the set-up menu. It sounds as if the dots and dash
are reversed. He provided this example:
Example when keying CQ signal must be:
> ____---_-_---_-___---_---_-_---____ like this
>
> But in our PC that signal goes like that:
> ----___-_-___-_---___-___-_-___---- that means key is always on when
> I not transmitting.
Guess it could be the LPT keying module but he doesn't have a spare so there
is no way to test that without sending him another. Any thoughts? It's tough
troubleshooting this stuff from 7000 miles away and through a language barrier.
Thanks
