[WriteLog] Access Denied When Settng Up Radio Control

Sat Sep 21 10:48:17 EDT 2013

I am tearing my hair out trying to get CAT control to work on Writelog with 
 my USB to Serial Converter.

I am setting up a Windows 7 laptop for a friend. I have a USB Port Expander 
 plugged into one of the USB ports on the laptop. I have 3 USB to Serial 
Converters plugged into the expander. 
The come up as COM 5, 6, and 7.

I am trying to set them up as follows:

RTTY FSK / PTT - COM 5
Radio CAT Control - COM 6
CW Keying - COM 7

The RTTY and CW Keying ports work fine. I am actually using EXTFSK for 
COM 5 but that all seems to be working.

However, whenever I try to setup COM 6 for CAT Control in the Ports Setup 
in Writelog, I get Access Denied.

I've gone into admin mode, revealed all my hidden COM ports, deleted them, 
and started over fresh several times adding the USB converters one at a 
time. Again, the RTTY and CW keying work but I always get Access Denied when 
I try to set up the COM 6 to for CAT Control.

Is there something I am missing? Do I need to enable something in 
Writelog.INI?

Lots of hours in this. Any suggestions welcome.
