I suggested this when the K3 was introduced.
I had just started using the Winkey USB with my K2/100 and loved it.
I still use it. It has Bug, Ultimatic, Curtis A and B emulation.
Maybe they'd save a little DSP code space by offloading CW generation to
the K1EL product.
There is a reason why a lot of contesters use K1EL products, every
single piece of contesting and shack management software incorporates
support for the product, and most every single digital mode interface on
the market incorporates a K1EL chip in the box to generate CW.
Why reinvent the wheel?

Maybe Wayne and Eric should talk to K1EL about licensing (or whatever
it is one has to do) so they can use his famous $8.00 keyer chip in
their transceivers. K1EL would make a little money and Elecraft would
set themselves even further ahead of the pack by providing just about
any keyer you can imagine right out of the box!
