Ultimatic is a lifesaver!
When I moved from my W9TO keyer with a single paddle to a "modern" keyer with
dual paddles I could hardly send CW. What a shock that was!
Then, I discovered ultimatic mode and life was good again.. ;-)

Barry,
Add a 3rd to your list. Ultimatic is the only way I can use dual lever
paddles. Most of my paddles are single lever for that very reason.

Bud,
You're only the second person in the world I know who uses Ultimatic (the
other being my HST teammate, Gary, W5ZL). I'm sure he'll be glad to know he
has company :
In addition to all the excellent features of the WinKey already mentioned:
The VERY BEST thing about the WinKey is that it includes the Ultimatic mode!
For my K3 setup, I use a WK2USB with dual-lever paddle (Brown Brothers), but I
also keep a single-lever Vibroplex paddle connected directly to t
Fred,
The nice thing about the Winkey - paddle in Winkey - N1MM combo is that
computer-CW and paddle-CW are the same speed and easily changable by one
knob in the winkey. Also, if the computer is keying and I tap the
paddle, the paddle immediately takes over and stops the computer-CW.

This is a beautiful excuse for owning another paddle, one for the
external keyer and one for the internal keyer. You can never have enough

Yeah, I have three paddles active in my SO2R station (two K3s). One
connected directly to each K3

Please note:
I have and use a WinkeyUSB keyer with my K3. It works well and does
all the things you would expect. WINDOWS will cause uneven CW keying if
used directly from logging software do to it very nature. Using the
Winkeyer (or other similar devices) will deliver perfect code
everytim
As said, N1MM can key the K3 via the serial port.
Still, I use my old K1EL keyer because:
- easy and quick change of keying-speed
- easy hook-up and integration of my CW-paddle
- easy and understandable ptt from the keyer to the K3
- easy setup (delays etc.) in the winkey page of N1MM.

Yes, in most cases. Most logging programs are capable of forming Morse dits and
dahs and sending them via a suitably configured and level-converted serial or
parallel port. But if the computer is heavily loaded, such as by telnet
spotting data, the code can be garbled. To avoid this, many contes

No such utility is needed -- N1MM talks to it directly via the USB or
serial connection. The WinKey works pretty well and takes only a few
hours to build.

I have the Winkey keyer. It works very well with N1MM and my K3. The
software to add character strings to the keyer come with the kit.

I am interested in getting into CW contesting and have seen reference to
the Winkey Keyer by K1EL. My Rig is an Elecraft K3 and I use N1MM for
logging. Is there utility in using a keyer in addition to that provided by
Elecraft? Thanks in advance.
