Hi Guy Thanks for your help and tips. It is not only my case PY2YP has obseved the same problem. In both cases on the two first letters. Why this is not happening when I return on all three computers to the version 7.07??? I will return to the previous version and wait for a way to solve the problem 73 Oms PY5EG

Tests are done on 5 different Pc´s/Laptops with XP-home & professional, Vista home & Ultimate and Windows 7 beta and prerelease Nomatter what I try on all systems with homebrew interfaces, USB to serials, Lpt interfaces and decoders, I can´t reproduce what Oms has, and why is even a bigger question because I know that Paul didn´t touch anything related to the cw-code part. What I know is the following.... I tried many different brands of USB to SERIAL converters and ended up with only one brand that does it all (ptt-cat-FSK-CW), all others had problems with 1 or 2 of the previous list. Sometimes updating the driver(s) could result in a better performance The programs is much bigger because of all new possibilities etc and Maybe this version requires more cpu-usage from the computer then version V7. On my running station (QUADCORE) with vista ultimate I watch the CPU usage all the time (sidebar gadget). DX4WIN801 running with radio-cw-mmtty-rotator-banddecoder-SteppIR-packetserver on 4 screens only takes between 1% and 2% CPU usage, When keying in CW or FSK it moves up to 3 a 4%. Maybe it would be a good start to look what your CPU is consuming. What also got my attention is ...... > I never had any problem in sending CW directly from the computer > using no interface in the previous version. This is not the way it should be it the first place, Its like driving without brakes. That it works with other programs can be true because it depends How or in what language the program is written. It can be that you drain to much current from the serial port And that your CPU could handle that before in a lesser consuming process And now its just a little to much and freeze for 1 ms or even less resulting in the missing space between the first 2 letters. Is it a BUG I honestly don´t think so. Suggestion 1.Put at least a simple interface between your computer and hardware 2.Put a blank (space) before the first character in your CW function keys Guy ON4AOI > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: [email protected] [mailto:dx4win- > [email protected]] Namens py5eg > Verzonden: donderdag 13 augustus 2009 18:49 > Aan: Jim Reisert AD1C; [email protected] > Onderwerp: [Dx4win] RES: RES: RES: dxw 8.01 BUG? key board > > Hi JIm > You don´t need to be so nervous!!! > Oms > > ________________________________ > > De: [email protected] em nome de Jim Reisert AD1C > Enviada: qui 13/8/2009 13:20 > Para: [email protected] > Assunto: Re: [Dx4win] RES: RES: dxw 8.01 BUG? key board > > > > OK, we get it.
