> After over sixty years of CW my old fingers are giving out from arthritis. 
> When I get so that I get too sloppy on my paddles I switch over to the

> the keyboard ok. The family computer has Windows XP and I use a program 
> called MixW. I have built a simple one transistor switch that keys my rig 
> from the serial port to the key jack.

> But I have to use the family computer to do that. My computer that is 
> dedicated to HAM radio uses Mepis (Linux) and I have been unable to find a 
> CW program to use as a keyboard. Does anyone know of a Linux cw program 
> that will let me key a switch to key my rig? It sure would be a big help 
> to me if you do know of one that is available. I need it for transmitting 
> only and am not interested in receiving CW.
