MacLogger and CW KEYER

Kalkwarf Robert
Hi, has anyone interfaced the K2 using MacLogger on a PowerBook G4  
with the new CW KEYER by microHAM?  I cannot seem to get MackLogger  
to OPEN the Port.  It is listed in the PANEL but when I select VFO it  
says it cannot open the port.  I installed the latest Nov 2005 driver  
pkg from  FTDI corporation

Yes, I do know that I can send CW via IOP.  I am just looking for  
more noise isolation and figured the Opto-Isolaters of the CW KEYER  
would provide that for me.

Any help?

I'm a couple of hours away from the Mac & K2 I use together, so I can't
check, but as I recall to make the Microkeyer work required a) clicking
the mH box to let MacLoggerDX know it's dealing with a Microkeyer, b)
choosing the right port & speed, c) untoggling DTR and RTS.   Also make
sure you're using the latest version of MacLoggerDX - Don has recently
added the ability to toggle type-ahead and also auto character spacing
with the Microkeyer.

If this doesn't work, drop a note to Don Agro (author of MacLoggerDX) -
he's great about support, and when I had questions he brought the
Microham folks into the loop as well.
