[WT-support] PIEXX SO2Rxlat USB-LPT

[Pete Smith]

I think I recall reading that this is exactly the answer - Win-Test is 
waiting for something that the MK2R sends but the XLAT does not.  Since 
the XLAT works perfectly with other software and dumb SO2R controllers 
like the DXDoubler, it's worth asking whether Win-Test really needs 
whatever it is.
