[Dx4win] RES: dxw 8.01 BUG? key board

Jim, Paul & Oms,

I can verify that this is a problem using com port keying.

My first two letters are sent together with no space when typing CW on 
the keyboard. If I type a string of 5 characters quickly, the first two 
are sent together, the remaing 3 are sent spaced normally.  When using 
preset 'F key' for sending, it works normally.

It's not just the first two letters after opening the window, it is the 
first two letters every time you type two or more.

I am using com port 4 for keying, with a split cable, so I can also use 
com 4 for radio control. I am controlling a Yaesu FT-920. My keying 
interface uses the DTR line. I am using Windows XP Pro.

This was not a problem in version 7.
