My experience with N1MM and both the Orion and the SDR-1000 is using K1EL's winkey gives the best experience. The problem is that N1MM works in the virtual realm and has very choppy timing when used with the Orion or the SDR. Winkey acts as a buffer and sends perfect code to something like 99 wpm. I have both the USB version and the serial port version. The USB version of winkey has better overall functionality. I use winkey as my day to day keyer as well since it allows 2 rigs to be connected to the keyer and you can switch rigs from the paddle by a software command. It also allows spacing to be adjusted in small sub dit increments so you can make your memories sound exactly how you like. If your call ended in ii for example you can put just a touch of extra spacing between the i's and make them more readable.
I found that if you use N1MM in a contest with the SDR you have to shut off Quick QSY in the general/Options tab of the setup menu. I would probably also shut off the keyboard commands as well since N1MM basically does all the work. I used Kenwood TS-2000 emulation in the SDR-1000 setup. 73 W9OY ____________________________________________________________________________________ Want to start your own business?
