Thank you for the intro Doug :.)

I'll give Mode B a try in the K3.  If it isn't to my liking, I'll just hook
up one of my many external keyers.

Speaking of the HST and Ultimatic (from K2AV's post) I used Ultimatic in the
competition in the numbers-only run.  I was much less prone to errors than
true Iambic.  The only other person I know who uses Ultimatic routinely is
W5ZL, who also participated in the HST in LZ last year.
