===================
Yeah, same with MixW. I have used it for years to key CW at many
speeds and never had a single timing issue.

There are very serious timing problems on CW when using certain SDR
programs, but this is a software flaw in those programs and has
nothing to do with Windows, and nothing to do with a K3.

If keying is done by asserting DTR, there is no stuttering even if an
interrupt (or more properly, a DPC) is generated in the middle of a
character element.

I'm sure that if you get your N1MM set up properly, you'll have no
problem with keying CW.
