Hello everyone....I just wanted to respond to this issue as I also noticed the
same
delay/hesitation in the actual transmission of the function key macros (after
the key is pressed)
this past weekend during the rtty contest. I also use writelog v 11.21
currently on a win7 pc.
I thought it was an adjustment I could tweak later until I saw others
complaining of the same thing.
Just my two cents.
Thanks
Ted VE3SS

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?
