PA0O ham radio

In the end it was simply an error in the  N1MMlogger.ini But before I came to that I walked some by ways.. My new FTDI  US232  USB to serial failed to work with my Radio / N1MM logger Notebook . U sing COM2  with this US232  ( 12345.. all tried as well) It will not send CW using DTR =CW  as used to with the   HQ U SB-rs232  Prolific chip type. Since N1MM was generating more and more time out  / overflow errors/ popups with the CAT connection I decided to change to the FTDI type  as this was advised by the N1MM community. The US232 was installed quick no driver disk was needed and the CAT  connection with N1MM worked instantly. But to my surprise I could not send CW Pressing F1 =CQ  RTS  asserts  high, TX is on but DTR stays low . RTS w ould not return low until ESC was pressed.  Changing to  TR4W logger using the same USB-serial com2  all is okay! DTR keys CW , RTS switches T/R...

Wintertime is no advantage for greyline DX-in W-E U   Times are not favourable when having  a full-time job       T here is s ome light on the horizon for low-band propagation since again tonite  VK7DIK was decoded  at   80m greyline peak. Aft er last solar flar e and aur ora  10m is almost complete closed here and in W-EU   no VK decodes seen since.
