[WriteLog] Comport won't open

Sun Feb 14 07:00:16 PST 2010

Attempting to set up WL on XP laptop. Setup works great on desktop.

Using MMTTY.

Using VSCom USB2COM adapter, XP device manager sees these ports as 5 and 6. MMTTY sees 5 as radio control, but returns error message, "can't open comport 6". I need this port for PTT and FSK.

I've tried uninstalling a couple of times. Device Manager still sees both ports, but get the above with stand alone MMTTY.

Anyone have a fix for this? Would appreciate hearing about it.
