Interesting observations. As one example of "wish list" items that is
particularly close for me is my requests for the keying algorithms be
expanded to include Ultimatic keying. I have been asking for that
since the early days of the K2, but so far has not been forthcoming. I
guess there are not enough other 'squeaky wheels' out there to make it
to the list of priority changes.
I really don't mind because I have resigned myself to the use of single
lever paddles. It would be nice to be able to do dot/dash insertions
that are possible with Ultimatic keying, but I simply cannot do Iambic
keying with dual lever paddles.
Maybe someday Wayne will have time to add it, but I am not holding my
breath, and I don't think my K2, K3 and KX3 are poorer transceivers
because my request has not been implemented - there are other more
important things "on the list".
