Tom,
Didn't get on last night maybe some today.
As for CW: When I went to Windows 7 2 1/2 years ago, I found that
Writelog no longer would reliably do CW keying via the old serial
interface I had used for years, so I went to a Winkey USB device.
If I'm not mistaken, you have been using the serial setup on win 7 with
N3FJP for a while, so maybe something else is going on.
You had mentioned some RFI problem a few days ago. Maybe there is
some RFI related problem.
In WL, the problem was maybe 10 or so good QSO's followed by rapid speed
increase and erratic sending. But again, this was a Win 7 problem from
day 1. Not sure that is your situation.
73, Steve KW3A
