HNY to all.
Steve pse which is your writelog version?
I have noticed the same delay-freeze in the last cq ww cw but
1)without fkeys, normal operation with function keys
2)my version was 11.21
3)operating system is windows 7 and writelog is installed in a different directory from the default
4)I had two computers in network
5)this happened more often when we had more qsos
6)computer was an old pentium 4 with 3gb memory
any common with me?

Hi Steve,

There isn't any delay built into FKeys for most things.  A couple of the
complex macros require a few milliseconds, but the vanilla stuff like
"Press F3" just insert the equivalent of the key press into the command
loop for Writelog.  Hence, nothing you can adjust.

I can imagine that heavy use of the packet windows could cause some
congestion in the Writelog message loop, but I'd expect it to be the same
for a key press.  Possibly a combination of that and competition of other
programs could add up.  I'll be curious to see if others noticed an issue.

I use a pretty simple setup with no other connections and I don't notice
any delay.

Hello

This weekend I noticed a delay when using the Fkeys program to key my
macros during the roundup. Sometime there is a delay of nearly 1/2 a second
or more. When pushing the Fkey on the keyboard there is no delay at all.

Did anyone else notice this? Or is there some timing setting I can tweak?
