[Elecraft] Retiring my MK-II

[Gary Smith]

> I know I'm going to lose two things: The Winkeyer, and true FSK RTTY.

# Perhaps not, I use the marvelous 
Win4K3Suite which with com0com gives me 
com ports aplenty to use MMTTY, N1MM, 
WSJT-X and Logic 9 all running at the same 
time. I do need to use winkey with N1MM in 
CW if I want to use the keyboard to send. 

I check off the Winkey box in the N1MM 
setup and use the USB winkey. There are 
two connections to the WinkeyUSB box; one 
goes to the key and the other USB to the 
computer, that's it and the CW transmit 
functions work perfectly.

I'm assuming you don't have the USB 
version. maybe there's a mod to add USB to 
your unit?

With RTTY, I use N1MM and run the MMTTY 
digital window with the K3 set to AFSK A 
and it works beautifully. When not using 
RTTY I set the radio to DATA A for WSJT-X

Flawless.

73,
