DTR keying works well with the K3, but as Tom pointed out, it does not play well with virtual COM ports. Since I started using Win4K3, I’ve had to use alternate means. I’m planning to go with a Winkeyer type device for all the reasons mentioned by the others. I recently found the Nanokeyer project, which is a Arduino based Winkeyer clone built on the code from K3NG. I’ve got one knocked together on the workbench and it seems to work well, so I’m going to give it a workout and see if it meets my needs, as soon as I find time to move it from a mass of jumper wires and clip leads to something resembling a completed piece of equipment.
