[DXLog.net - Support] DXLog and YCCC SO2R Box - CW Winkey issues

Mon Apr 10 05:29:06 CEST 2017

I did some further digging - older versions of DXlog also behave the same.

I then went on to capture the Keyer messages in the SO2R Box utility which
can capture keyer messages separately when starting N1MM+ and then pressing
the F4 key which was programmed with my special call AT2FOC. I also did the
same with DXLog - the results are below in the table if this helps.
