K3 rough note on CW monitor

Julius Fazekas n2wn
This weekend I noticed that the CW sound was distorted and full of artifacts. This was listening to my own sending via headphones, keying was via N1MM through the serial port.

I'm using MCU 2.22 / DSP 1.88.

Any thoughts?

thanks,
Julius

So I assume you are using one serial port to control the K3 and another to
key it? Perhaps the PC is busy doing other task at times. This is why a lot
of hams buy the Winkey keyer. I've been able to get by ok by using the
parallel port on the pc and the LPT adapter from Hose Nose.

I haven't noticed too much in the way of distortion.
But the leading edge of CW elements is decayed with NR on.
It seems to me that DSP 1.81 works much better with MCU 2.2x

If anyone needs one of these LPT adapters for keying let me know off list.  I have
one available.
