[WriteLog] MMTTY no diddles with WriteLog

Tue Oct 17 21:43:46 EDT 2006

To: Don, Joe, Jerry, and anyone else who may have replied:
OK, now I am embarrassed! The system was working all along! I just 
didn't try transmitting from the function keys or from the "type 
ahead buffer." (Last night, I had just clicked on the MMTTY 
"Transmit" button, and when I did that, I got a single tone.)
So I a happy camper with WriteLog and MMTTY working on FSK with a 
Keyspan USB adapter.
Thanks so much for the great support!
