Without it (or some other type of interface), you'd have to use the
RTS/DTR lines on the rig-control COM-port for keying. This works fine
for some, but others have issues with timing (it's dependent on
Windows and the COM port operating smoothly). The WinKeyer is very
well regarded amongst contesters, and will generally provide the most
dependable operation.
