[Elecraft] K3: Contesters using N1MM voice keyer versus K3DVK

[Buck k4ia]

The advantage of the N1MM voice keyer is that it will automatically send 
the next message depending on where you are in the logging sequence. 
You can also go so far as to record individual letters and it will 
string them together to "say" callsigns and incremental QSO numbers. 
Its a lot of work to do that trick but it can be done.

If you use the K3DVK, you have to take your hands off the keyboard to 
punch a button on the front panel of the radio and your number of 
available messages is much more limited.

And, the N1MM voice keyer is free.
