[Dx4win] 99 % CPU Usage

[Dennis Mowers]

I am running DX4WIN on two computers, practically identical with the 
same amount of memory.

One of them runs about 4-7% CPU usage with several windows open, 
including WriteLog, along with DX4Win.

The other computer goes to 99% CPU usage as soon as I open DX4Win.  I 
don't even have to open a log file to see the problem.  Packet windows 
were opening, but I turned them off, and that was not the problem.

Has anyone seen this problem?

73, Dennis-K5YA

[Dx4win] 99% CPU Usage

[Dennis Mowers]

Problem fixed.

Thanks to all who replied.

I suspected the COM or LPT ports controlling the radio or Top Ten.  I 
removed those from DX4WIN Preferences, but that did not help.  I also 
set everything to do with packet to none, that didn't help.

Now, why did I do what is outlined below?  Desperation.

I went to the device manager, and disabled all the COM, LPT, Network 
adaptors, and several other things that I didn't think would stop the 
computer.  Then I re-enabled everything, and restarted the computer.  I 
had previoulsly restarted several times after trying a few things, but 
this time the CPU usage dropped to 5%.

So, this is the HOW to fix it.  The WHY is still a mystery.

Thanks,
Dennis-K5YA

[Dx4win] RTTY

[Dennis Mowers]

Does DX4WIN support FSK keying via a COM port? 

I have it running with a sound card to MIC connection, but when I look 
at the MMTTY setup Misc tab, the COM-TxD area is greyed out.  It looks 
like AFSK may the only way to run RTTY.

Thanks, Dennis

[Dx4win] Incoming Packet Spots -Switch BP Filter on LPT1

[Dennis Mowers]

What parameter do I have to set to keep incoming packet spots from 
momentarily switching the band pass filter I have connected to LPT-1?

My Packet 1 prefernces are set to REGULAR and TCP/IP, for Telnet access.

The BP filter switches to the band the packet spot is on the when the 
spot is received, and then back to the band the radio is set to on the 
next radio poll. 

Thanks,
Dennis-K5YA
