Sometimes there really is no good explanation because people don't use
the same hardware, and thus have different drivers installed. They also
have different software installed. The machine I'm typing this on is a
quad core processor running at 4Ghz with 16 Gigabytes of ram and a pair
of SSD's. This thing rips by anybody's standard. It won't run Adobe
Flash worth a crap. All three browsers will lock up from time to time.
Kill the Flash plugin and it works but there goes my "multimedia
experience".
So, it could be hardware, it could be USB driver versions, it could be
drivers for any of the hardware installed, it could be installed
software. It could be Windows itself. Point is the Winkey bypasses all
that stuff and is still "one wire compliant" in that it doesn't connect
to the radio except the key jack which I assume may already have a
paddle hooked up.

I have read the same discussions about problems with serial-port keying,
and like Guy, have never understood why some people experience timing
problems while others do not.
However, the point at issue here is much more specific: VP8NO's
observation that his KIO3B-USB connection in his older K3 had keying
problems whereas his hardware RS232 connection did not. I was only
trying to balance that with the observation that the KIO3B's USB port
*is* capable of providing good serial-port keying in the absence of any
other problems.
