Hi Barry, Well I was keeping an eye on Win4K3 because I was looking for a non-contest program that was more modern, but at the time I looked at Win4K3 the only CW generation I could find was done by purchasing a WinKey. I was just corrected by Tom in that he says his program will interface with a keyboard, so I will have to look at it again?! The reason I am interested in keyboard generated CW is because I used to run QRQ in excess of 60 wpm (up to 120 wpm) and I didn't ever attempt to push a mechanical key to those speeds. While I still use the old YPlog for QRQ (it will work, no stutter, up to 200 wpm) and NO, I never got that high!). I also switched to a Dvorak layout keyboard to enable to get my typing speed from about 40 wpm max to around 140 wpm (brief spurts..hihi).

I find it is really helpful for contesting, particularly, and pile up busting where you are throwing your call out, and out, and out, etc. Pushing a button to send 599 TU cuts down on fatigue. It's another useful tool in the bag along with the spectrum display that can quickly show where there is activity, but most importantly, I can see where the DX station is working that other guy in a split operation; this works better than having a second receiver. 73, Barry K3NDM ------ Original Message ------ From: "Chester Alderman" <alderm...@windstream.net> To: "'Tom'" <tom...@videotron.ca>; "'Elecraft'" <el.ecr...@mailman.qth.net> Sent: 1/20/2017 4:59:14 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] New release of Win4K3Suite supporting the SDRPlay RSP2 >I've been a CW operator for a little more than 65 years, and I still >enjoy it.
