[Dx4win] RTTY F KEYS AND COM PORT

[Floyd Sense]

Never tried that before, but did after seeing your question.  I use COM2 for 
RTTY and so set up COM2 for CW as you have.  With no MMTTY window open, I 
can send CW just fine from the window.  If I then open the DX4WIN MMTTY 
window, MMTTY will not key the COM2 interface under any conditions - using 
the TX key in MMTTY or any of the message buffers.  As you said, the CW 
window doesn't have to be open at the time for this to be a problem.  I also 
have to set the CW port to NONE in order for MMTTY to work properly on the 
same COM port.

I just recently upgraded to DX4WIN 7.01 to check out the MMTTY 
implementation.  I was disappointed to see that the macro buttons that 
normally appear at the left of the signal displays is not present when using 
MMTTY from within DX4WIN.  Guess that's a casualty of the way MMTTY 
implemented the interface.

Question 1- My F keys will not send the message but I can send from keyboard
Question 2- (Maybe related to #1)When I key an F key I get a message
"An exception occured- Device already open".

I have the keying for RTTY on Com2.  I used to also have the keying
for CW on Com2 but found that won't work even if I only have one of
the windows open at a time.  So now if I want RTTY I have to set CW to
Comm- None.
