Hi all,

 

I didn't use my IC 7400 and WL+ MKII ever before. So I tried to setup my IC
7400 with Microkeyer II and Writelog 11.18 all with latest software release
but with limited success.  I'm using a notebook with Win 7 64 bit and 16GB
RAM.

SSB, CW and RTTY all modes working fine in both ways rx and tx with
Writelog. The problem is that periodically the Bandmap is switching the
frequency for a short time to 163000 or something. and then back to the
correct operating frequency. 

Even all 40 or 50 seconds sometimes more sometimes less the mode is
switching from CW, SSB or RTTY always to AM mode for around a half second or
less and then back to CW, SSB  or RTTY depend what was selected before. In
the black magic Microkeyer II box you can hear that a relay is clicking  and
the display indicated "Voice Mode" for this time and then back to what was
before.

 

I tried different settings baud rate, ports but still no success. The setup
was done according Microham's recommendations for the device router and
Writelog itself.

I cannot recognize this with the Microkeyer and MMTY as standalone.

 

Attached a dump from Device Router Log. You can see clearly in line 15 the
switching from USB to AM and then back in line 21 to USB in a very short
time. The Bandmap switching not appears in the dump Log but it was there as
well. 

 

BTW its working with Writelog and my FT1000MP and the same Microkeyer fine. 

 

So, whats wrong? Any ideas. 

 

73! de Gerd, DF5SI
