 Hi Steve. 
I am not convinced that Rttyrite will send CW. It is my belief, and I could be 
wrong, that you can only receive CW in the Rttyrite window. I say this because 
of what I read in the WriteLog help file under "CW for Rttyrite". 
There is only one mention of transmitting CW in this section where it says "The 
WriteLog CW Receiver screen automatically appears when you select the CW mode. 
The frequency display is the top left panel. It always displays the frequency 
ranges +/- 250Hz from a center frequency shown by the light blue vertical bar 
in the very. The yellow vertical bar shows your receive frequency. You can set 
the center (transmit) frequency in WRITELOG.INI using the CW_XMIT_FREQ 
setting.[Rttyrite]
CW_XMIT_FREQ=750"So I think this refers to using the CW_XMIT_FREQ command to 
determine the center frequency of the CW receiver. That's what I get out of it.
Since we are talking about WL receiving CW, I want to say that I believe the 
WriteLog CW decoder is much better than using Rttyrite. With Rttyrite, the CW 
signal has to be close to the center frequency of the decoder in order to copy. 
With the WL CW decoder, signals can be off frequency a bit on either side of 
the center frequency and it will still decode.
The advantage of using Rttyrite to receive CW is that you can make the font 
size larger to see.

 Hi all.. I have a ongoing problem.. When using Rttyrite in Writelog, it works 
fine in FSK RTTY. It sends and hears RTTY no problem. The F-keys are also 
sending no problem.

My issue is when I go to do CW. Rttyrite in Sound Board AFSK and CW mode 
receives fine. However, if I hit any of the programmed F-keys nothing 
happens..!! It does not key the rig..

Has anyone else had this occur? How do I get Rttyrite to send CW messages via 
the F-keys?

Equipment is as follows. Win 10 laptop, Icom IC-7000, microHam MK II, Writelog 
V12.50H

Hope someone can unravel this for me..
