I've got to agree with Randy. While I do use a microHAM MK2R (with WinKey
inside) at my contest station for SO2R purposes, my home station setup is a
simple Belkin USB/serial adapter between N1MM on an XP Pro box and one K3.
I key the DTR/CTS lines in the serial connection of the K3 for CW/PTT and
My apologies to all ... this was supposed to be a direct reply. I
didn't mean to perpetuate the thread on the reflector. Sloppy

That simply isn't accurate. It might be true on a slow computer (or one
bogged down with other junk) , since N1MM (the author) makes it very
clear on his web site that he doesn't try to optimize the code for older
machines, but I've run direct keying from N1MM in many contests over the

VE3KI's explanation is absolutely correct, but I would add a CAUTION that once
you have this arrangement set up, be careful to boot your computer and N1MM
BEFORE turning on your K3 or at least before enabling transmit. This is
because some of the start-up "processes" seem to key the radio when

Not true with the K3, Mike. Unlike most other radios, the K3 accepts CW and
PTT keying signals on DTR and/or RTS without any need for a keying circuit -
see the manual p. 18,

You CAN key the K3 using RS-232 command without a keying
interface. See page 18 of the manual.

I think my K3 is set DTR-RTS (not in front of the radio, so don't take this
as gospel).
Crank down the power, or go to test mode. It will save you from ummm
