I use it all the time (just got done running a CW sked on 2m with a distant
shoreline station) and have never had a single hiccup. I am using it on an
old XP box & 5000A and find it very stable.

Hi Mike,
That's disappointing because CWX was a real life-saver when I realized that
I wasn't going to be able to send messages via N1MM Logger (and I left my
paddle at home!).
I wonder if the folks at Flex have heard of this? Guys?

Hi Ken,
CWX is extremely unreliable, I have seen all sorts of problems with it,
even a complete cold boot of the PC!
I've had the same problems as you with using the predefined messages,
works great for a while then boom, goes off on one and often find I have
to either restart PSDR or reboot the PC to fix it, this is with a Flex3000.
For CW you will be much better off using an external programmable keyer,
much more reliable.
Best 73,
Mike.

A few days before Field Day I figured out how to get PSDR 2.6.4 and N1MM
Logger to work together using VSP Manager. Some of you may recall the
idiotic questions I posted here before I re-read the instructions!
Anyway, I arrived at my Field Day site and set up my antennas, hooked up
and fired up my 1500 and my computer. Nothing worked. When I checked
VSP Manager I found that the virtual serial connections I'd created days
before were all gone. I should be able to figure that one out
myself...I guess there's a Save button I neglected to click after
creating the virtual connections. No big deal; I told N1MM logger not
to look to the radio for anything and then set up my messages in CWX and
found it easy to use.
With about an hour left in Field Day CWX choked. Clicking the button
that sent my call produced a 1 second delay followed by a 1 second dash,
a pause and another one second dash. I can't remember if it stopped
after two dashes or if i stopped it myself. Seems to me I got the same
result if I tried sending any of the other messages I'd programmed.
It's strange to me why CWX would work reliably all weekend and then
choke like this.
One more thing, clicking the Keyboard button in CWX has never at any
time enabled the keyboard.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Many thanks and 73,
Ken Alexander
