Hi Les,
For a small stand-alone QRSS beacon  keyer I would recommend 
a small keyer called the CWKtiny. It comes  already assembled on a 
small circuit board not much bigger than about 2  square inches
and draws around 40-50ma @ 7-15 VDC.

It can be  programmed with a standard PC keyboard and supports a
good assortment  of  modes like QRSS up to QRSS120, 
DFCW, Triangle mode, simple Hell  modes, etc.

It is made and sold in Europe. The price is reasonable
at  39 Euros plus shipping. Mine arrived in less than 2 weeks time.
It is sold  through WiMo in Germany I believe. Follow the links 
to WiMo in  English.

I would recommend downloading the manual so you can see
what  its capabilities  are.

I'm trying to get a Medfer beacon  on the air. Wondering what people are 
using these days to transmit QRSS  signals? I recall some people used 
PC's a few years ago, but don't recall  the software. Others used a K1EL 
keyer?

Any advice  appreciated.
