[Elecraft] K3S and Winkeyer

[AB2E Darrell]

Hi Bill,

I'd say it just comes down to personal preference. I'm primarily a contester and dxer.

I sometimes use the builtin keyers in the K3 and the Icom IC-7800.

However, I do like and have several Winkeyers. They interface easily in N1MM+ on their own serial port. The speed can be controlled either from the Winkeyer speed pot or from the N1MM+ program with a mouse to change the speed.

I have the standalone Winkeyer USB, also 2 of my Rig Expert interfaces have builtin Winkeyers.

To me I like the stability and accuracy of the Winkeyer. It's easy to adjust the speed up or down 2wpm at a time.

So boils down to personal preference and I have nothing bad to say about the builtin keyers.

I’d like to start contesting and plan on using N1MM with my K3S. Is there any advantage on adding a Winkeyer to the mix?

Thanks in advance,

Bill - W3PNM
