[Dxbase] Win 7 & DXBase Generated CW

Mon Nov 2 17:41:01 EST 2009

It doesnt work here on Vista either.. 
I get real lazy with pile ups so I downloaded cwtype and I just used that. With no com ports on the new pukers and it seems the comports that arent really there are already used so I bought 2 edgeport units and im using them for connections for my rig and various programs like MTTY and CW Type.. Dxbase stops at com 8 I think and that gives me the problem. I do have one edgeport that has a parallel port on it but id dismantled my cable so I figured id just go with one of the com cables I was using but it doesnt work .. The reason is im using com 9 i think and DxBase doesnt support it.. Matter of fact my radio is linked up via com 7 and MMTTY thru the port on the back of the rig is com 8 and im using com9 for cw get.. I do have come 10 also but its not being used at this time but may come into play for psk when I get off my lazy ass and make the connection :)

Just got a Win 7 (32-bit) computer and have been loading and configuring 
software. 
DXBase works fine, except that, so far, I cannot get it to generate CW 
using the internal DXBase keyer. 
Possibly cockpit trouble, but, yes, I did run dxbdvr and restart the 
computer, but no joy. 
Has anyone using Win 7 run into this issue, or is it just me? 
With thanks and 73, 
Al, K6RIM
