I am not what you would call a "computer guru", in fact not really very
computer literate at all, but having used the MicroHam MicroKeyer II for
several months now it seems VERY easy to interface to my station. I switch
back and forth between three radios, K3, Yaesu, and Icom, and find all I
need do after initial setup is change the cable and "fine tune" settings to
match the particular radio. It couldn't be any simpler. Later I will add
the PW-1 to the mix and be able to use it with any of the three rigs. I do
use FSK religiously for RTTY, so don't face the audio level problems there,
but PSK-31 does and I didn't have any trouble there either. It DID take
reading the manual and playing some initially, but once the "language" of
the supplier is known, and the peculiarities of the rigs are known, it is
pretty simple. If I do run into a problem that I cannot decipher, the
manufacturer is quick to reply with suggestions and page numbers of the
manual, so I can learn what I did wrong. I like that approach (i.e., I am
NOT told the RTFM, but given better clues). I have no connections to
MicroHam, SignaLink, etc etc, but feel their interfaces receive a bad rap at
times.
