[Dx4win] SO2R

I also have a DXDoubler and use it with N1MM, WriteLog and DX4Win with the exact same configuration for each one.  WriteLog was first logging software I used after getting the DXD and MM and DX4Win just 'worked' without mods.   I use a parallel port for rig selection (SO2R) and also still use it keyboard / memory generated CW.    
 
My use of the DXD and DX4Win is limited to radio focus for CW, Mic, and Logging (packet cluster, etc) and not the real SO2R like functionality that I use in N1MM or WriteLog.  DX4Win is my general logger and target location where I import my contest Qs from WL and MM.

Howard,

Pin 14 of the LPT port that controls the switching.  Go to DX Doubler and look at the mod sheet for using with DX4WIN.  There is additional jumpers to facilitate DX4WIN.  Hope this helps

I have used DX4Win for so long that I am reluctant to go another route for DX'ing and casual operating but I undoubtedly will for contesting. I would like to hear from anyone using Dx4win in a SO2R config.
