I've experienced the same problem running Win XP SP3 and microHAM MK2R+. In<br>
WT V3.x I just had to reload the MK2R+ router settings for the particular<br>
configuration I was running just after starting the router but before<br>
starting Win-Test and all would work fine. However, for WT v4.x this does<br>
not help. Have not found solution to get WT to send CW with the microHAM<br>
MK2R+ yet.<br>

Hi Ian,<br>
<br>
I've seen this several times and I have the impression that this occurs more<br>
often in V4.x than with V3.x. I don't think that this is related to the<br>
operating system (I use WinXP). Unfortunately I haven't found a way to<br>
reproduce this problem which is more or less mandatory to fix it.<br>
<br>
Only way to get rid of the problem is restarting WT (several times).<br>
I remember that I restarted WT around ten times just before WAG contest<br>
began :-(<br>
<br>
BTW: Are you using a Microham Interface? If so, try restarting the device<br>
router also.<br>
<br>
