Hi Bob - I see by your posts on the N1MM Logger group that the LPT port
address on your laptop was indeed not correctly set just as I had
conjectured and, that once set, it solved your basic LPT keying problem!
 Ha - my neck is still in tact!  Thank you very much :-)

As to the connection of the keying diodes and the correct setting of the K2
software, I note that Rich KE0X has already answered that one quite nicely -
no need for germanium diodes - the 1N4148 silicon diodes should work well -
that is what I'm using.  Following his directions, your system should be
working well at this point.

Glad you are now up and running.  Have fun es 73  --Don N4HH  K2/100 #2028
