[Elecraft] When is mode A not mode A?

[Vic Rosenthal 4X6GP/K2VCO]

Keyers are very different. For example, I am a mode B guy and a 
'squeezer', but I find mode B on the Logikey, the K3 and the WinKeyer 
have different timing demands. I have beaten myself into being able to 
use the K3 keyer despite formerly using the Logikey, but I had to make a 
conscious effort to do so.
