I presume you are talking about the "virtual keying", as Elecraft
calls it, feature using the 'KY' command to key the K2?
Unfortunately, very very very few programs make use of this feature.
I wish more would.  I am very picky about the software I use and it'd
be hard to pry my fingers away from them.

I use N1MM for RTTY operating and rig control while contesting.  N1MM
does not support "virtual keying".

For casual operating, I used the DX Lab suite for digital operating,
rig control, and logging.
