[Elecraft] N1MM CW issue

[Vic Rosenthal 4X6GP/K2VCO]

If you have a K3 with the old synthesizer, then you will have this 
problem with a paddle or with N1MM, or indeed with any source of CW. One 
solution is to activate QRQ mode (CONFIG CW QRQ = ON). There are some 
limitations, such as not being able to use it with SPLIT or RIT/XIT. The 
better solution is to buy the new synthesizer and replace it. In that 
case, if you have the second receiver, you need two synthesizers, which 
unfortunately will be expensive (especially in Europe).

The K3S comes with the new synthesizer.

I suggest you try sending with a paddle at the speed you want to use to 
determine if this is the cause.

There is also a problem with any computer-generated CW that it can be 
affected by other processes in the computer, especially if you are 
accessing the Internet for spots at the same time. The best solution for 
this is to get a Winkey device which will interface with N1MM+ and 
generate the CW.

Both of these issues could contribute to the problem.
