[LOGic] Logic 8 and Microham Interfaces

[Stan]

Mel
I have tried Com1 RTS and DTR both ways, checked and unchecked in Logic 
8. Makes no difference.

My Computer is an AMD 4200plus dual core and 2 gb memory, not your 
average ham clunker.

HRD/780 sends perfect cw keying the Com 5 DTR line. I used DM 780 for CW 
in the last 160 mtr contest a few weeks ago. 370 QSOes and not one cw 
stutter.
Mixw 2 sends perfect CW keying com 5 DTR line
Just Trying the N1MM logger. At 30 wpm N1MM sends perfect CW keying the 
Com 5 DTR line.

Logic 8 is useless on my setup for cw keying. Stutters at 25wpm, really 
poor and not useable.
