One big advantage, if you play to use keyboard based CW at all, is that on the K3, you cannot use software keying using the built in keyer on the Elecraft. Instead, you need to use N1MM's DTR keying which is software based and cannot be used reliably unless you only have N1MM software running with the K3. If you use any virtual ports, it will not work reliably. A WinKey is a good solution and not expensive. Most software packages support WinKey.

Subject: [Elecraft] K3S and Winkeyer

I’d like to start contesting and plan on using N1MM with my K3S. Is there any advantage on adding a Winkeyer to the mix?

Thanks in advance,

Bill - W3PNM
