Re: [Tlf-devel] Re: Cwdaemon - not very good solution

Hi Martin, 

it has been the goal for cwdaemon from the beginning to be function-compatible 
with the TRLOG solution. Tlf will use pin 14 for 2 purposes,  radio A/B 
switching and pullup pin for the paddles. Of course the use of pin 14 for 
other  purpuses in other programs is not forbidden :-)....

At the moment you can switch pin 14 with ctrl-r from tlf (until the SO2R logic 
is implemented).

73,
