[microHAM] RE: [ICOM] Microham Keyer or RigExpert Plus?

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

Not only is the keyer portion of the microKEYER "full function" - 
as a CW Keyer it is one of the most full featured, stand alone 
keyers available.  

The Keyer includes nine programmable memories, a contest serial 
number capability and the ability to send CW from a standard 
computer keyboard if one is attached to the keyer.  The message 
memories can be loaded from the computer, keyboard or paddles 
and playback can be initiated from either a keyboard or a PS/2 
numeric keypad. 

All of the CW functions of the microKEYER - and a USB interface 
for rig control - are also available in the microHAM CW Keyer if 
one does not need or care for the voice switching and digital 
mode support that sets microKEYER above all other interfaces. 

Full details, including user manuals, are available from our 
web site: www.microHAM-USA.com
