[Dx4win] Thanks but no success

[John Shaw]

Hi Lance,

No expert here and none of the other replies were to the reflector so I
don't know if I am repeating something already said.

 

I was getting the same message as you, although my setup is simpler than
yours.  Only using one com port no rig control and spots done by telnet.

 

Anyway I was getting the same error as you, couldn't figure it out till
just recently I read in the help files  under PTT delay "A zero value
indicates that PTT keying is not used". Sure enough mine was set at
zero, changed that and bingo now it all works fine.

 

So now with one com port with some PTT delay I have CW keying on DTR,
PTT control on RTS. Now I tell MTTY PTT is on PTT control same for PSK31
and CW keying.  No more error messages just close one mode and open
another bingo.  Hope that helps.

Thanks to all who replied to my original email.  I have tried each

and every suggestion but am still having the same problem.  I

would still like to solve the problem, as would 3 others who have

the same problem and have asked for my help, when it is solved.

I have been trying to set up DX4Win for RTTY and am having 

a problem!

 

I have MMTTY set up and running fine.  When I select the RTTY

window in DX4Win, I can receive RTTY just fine.  When I try to

transmit, I get the followning error:

 

     An exception occured!

     ie_Open - device already open

 

I have suspected it's a Com port problem, so have changed the

Preferences so that only one Com port is accessed.  I have four

available Com ports and MMTTY is using Com4.  Rig control is

Com1, packet cluster tnc is Com2.  Com3 is currently unused.

 

Can someone on the reflector give me some guidance?  

I would really like to keep using DX4Win for all modes.  I'm currently 

switching between MMTTY and manually entering all contacts in

DX4Win.

 

Thanks & 73,

   Lance WN0L
