Ken, Thanks for the suggestions. I found that my external keyer (MFJ-401D) is not compatible with the COM port, either. So I connected my paddles & straight key direct to the COM port.
I had been using the key jack on the back of the SDR-1000, and that would still be my preference. The CW setup article in the Knowledge Base as well as the SDR-1000 manual indicate that there is less latency if you use the COM port. I tried the COM port instead of the key jack because of a problem I had trying to use the key jack. However, the problem is still there. Using the CWX automatic keyer, the radio sends perfect code. However, if I try to send CW using either the paddles or the straight key, there is a very significant delay between key closure & transmit output. For example, if I set the code speed on the internal keyer to 15 wpm & send a string of 5 dits, the transmitter will not turn on until the 3rd dit, cutting off the 1st 2 dits. I confirmed this by watching my in-line power meter & by listening on another receiver. This occurs using either the rear panel jack or the COM port. What am I missing? 73, Ray, K9DUR -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
