[WT-support] [Fw: Win-Test]

[Pete Smith]

Well, I gave it a try, and discovered that I am not getting any function 
key CW when I have disabled the parallel port CW and PTT in the 
configuration dialog.  I have good Winkey hand CW that way, but do not 
appear to be getting any serial port messages from the program delivered to 
the Winkey.  I have checked the speed, Winkey port parameters, and DTR/RTS 
settings (always on) without results.

If I enable the parallel port CW and disable the Winkey port (COM4), I get 
good stored CW and normal program operation.

N1MM required some tinkering to get the V9 chip to initialize properly, 
compared to V8.  any possibility this is involved?
