[WT-support] MMTTY/RADIO

Hi Iain/Ben,
    This confused me also, I ended up having to manually use the footswitch
to PTT. I use an Elecraft K3 with PTT in the same coms port as rig control.
In wintest, I configured the comms port for rig control and PTT on RTS (as I
normally do for cw contests). FSK is provided from MTTY to the rig through a
separate comms port. The problem was that the rig would not PTT on hitting
any of the function keys on the RTTY window in WinTest. I have since tried
WinTest in a CW contest and the above configuration works leading me to
believe it's not the hardware. What am I doing wrong?
