[WT-support] Function Key Failure

[Bob Wilson, N6TV]

No problems here with CW using WT4 and MK2R+.  I'm using an older version of
the Router software though.  Others are having major problems with newer
Router software losing communications (Busy light comes on), especially when
at least one of the radios is an Elecraft K3.

Please send or post screen shots of every applicable setting and I'll
probably be able to see if something is set incorrectly.  Start with the
Win-Test Configure Interfaces menu and the Router Ports tab, PTT tab, and
WinKey tab.

Also type WKSETUP and send that screen as well.

To create a screen shot:

   1. Highlight the window (give it the focus)
   2. Press Ctrl-Alt-Shift-PrintScreen to copy an image of the Window to the
   Windows Clipboard
   3. Start | Programs | Accessories  | Paint
   4. Edit, Paste
   5. File, Save As
   6. Enter a file name and select PNG as the file type
   7. Email or post the PNG file somewhere (the Win-test eflector will strip
   large attachments)

73,
Bob, N6TV
