Don,
The MMTTY plug-in initializes the MMTTY engine with the COM Port
passed by WriteLog at start-up. WriteLog has no "EXTFSK" option
in the Ports menu.
When started as a DLL (which is what the plug in does), MMTTY
does not use the (PTT/FSK) port information stored in MMTTY.INI
... it uses the configuration options passed at the start up.
When MMTTY receives a port (even if EXTFSK has been configured
for that port) it will not start EXTFSK. Prior to the addition
of "Software FSK on DTR," I spent dozens of hours looking for
a configuration option that would allow the MMTTY plug-in to
call/use EXTFSK with no success.
73,
... Joe, W4TV
