I don't understand -- the CW sidetone indicates Win-test starts immediately,
but zero power output?  It is as if PTT is not pressed?  Does your LCU-KEY
(?) use Pin 16 and ground for PTT to the radio?

- with the VOX-switch set to "VOX" PTT is keyed, Display still shows "S"

TX-delay?  You mean CW PTT ON delay as shown in the attachment?  What is the
value?

I don't think this applies here, but some laptops (especially IBM / Lenovo
ThinkPad) use a different printer port address than most desktops.  See this
link <http://docs.win-test.com/wiki/Menu:Options#Printer_Ports> for
instructions how to determine the address being used by your printer port,
and how to tell Win-Test to use it.
