radio control and CW interface

Jorge Diez - CX6VM
Hi

 

HNY!!

 

In my TS850 I have a W1GEE interface connected in my LPT port to send CW and
a G4ZLP Cat interface to do radio control, with N1MM and Win-Test.

 

With the K3, wich cables interface may I use to send CW and to control the
radio with N1MM and Win-Test?

 

Thanks!

 

73,

I don't know anything about Wintest but I'm using K1EL's Winkeyer USB with N1MM.

The advantage of this keyer versus computer keying of the K3 directly is:

1.  CW timing is perfect...no choppiness.
2.  Keying can be interrupted immediately with either ESC on the keyboard or by touching the paddles.

Cables needed are:

USB cable from computer to Winkeyer (supplied with Winkeyer).
KEY1 cable from Winkeyer to K3 KEY IN (standard dual phono).
PTT1 cable from Winkeyer to K3 PTT IN (standard dual phono).
KEY OUT from K3 to amplifier (standard dual phono).

Winkeyer can be used either stand alone (with internal memories) or with computer (with N1MM memories).  It can also be used with two rigs in N1MM SO2R mode.
