Ditto Joe's comments... using a clunky 350 mHz Dell Optiplex, 256KB ram. I'm using the usual single NPN transistor interface, emitter to LPT pin 1, base to pin 17 (might be 16, I'm going from memory here...) through a 1K resistor, and collector to the "key" input on my rig, an IC-737A. I'm using this with both DXBase and N1MM's Logger with no problems.

Good luck. 73, Joe WL7M At 12:17 PM 3/19/2003, Larry Strasser wrote: >Well.... > >I have been trying to get the CW keyer to work on the parallel port (LPT1) >but no success. > >The keying circuit works well with CT for Windows on LPT1. > >I am running DXBASE 2003 on a Dell Precision 350 2.4 Ghz with 1 Gig of >RDRAM, 2, 80 Gb HD's, an ATI dual output monitor card, using Windows XP PRO >SP1. > >The Drivers do not appear on the "non plug and play' list. > >I have uninstalled and reinstalled DXBASE including the ini file from the >Windows folder as per Jacks instructions. > >The drivers still do not appear in the "non plug and play" list. > >Anyone have an idea? > >73, Larry > >K2LS _______________________________________________ DXBase Reflector - Please visit us on the web at www.dxbase.com - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - To UNSUBSCRIBE please visit: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase
