Hello Bob,

I checked HKLM and there is no such entry under parameters in the referenced
location. Darn I thought you were on to something too.  I am in the IT
support business so I am very familiar with the registry and editing it. The
are no entries in the hive other then default. Something changed in either
4.51 or 4.6 as I was using wtrotators just fine before.  I purchased
PstRotator hoping that would resolve my issue.  The errors on the socket
only occur when I have PstRotator running.  I am running Windows 7 64 bit
for the last year and half and Win-test has been flawless.  Wtrotators will
run and turn the antenna manually using it's control panel but does not seem
to receive commands from Win-test when the CTRL F12 key is depressed.  I
have given Win-test Wtrotators and Wt telnet full privileges on the firewall
and application control. No new software has been added or updated that
should affect this issue.  Both wtrotators and pstrotator do not receive the
UDP packets to turn the antenna.  I just love the weird stuff :)
