1) There is no problem writing a Windows program with accurate timing to key your radio via a serial or parallel port, this is a common misconception.

2) Winkeyer is an excellent device which can be more closely controlled than driving a radio via the KY command, even Kenwood's TS-480.

The KY command is OK and does work.

I suggest 2) if your logging program of choice supports it. A quick touch of the paddles and you're in charge of the sending instead of the Winkeyer, also the Winkeyer has many configuration options such as Farnsworth. I don't send much CW but have programmed both options.
