Agreed. Windows has always been lousy at multi-tasking. I remember people saying years ago the benefit of switching from '98 to NT was you would never see an egg-timer. But no, even today it's possible for some process to hold up everything else on the PC. But the K3 provides a more elegant solution to this problem. You can send ASCII direct to the K3 using KY commands and it sends CW for you. Unfortunately none of the main contest logging programs use it. (In fact I think my program KComm, and possibly HRD, are the only ones that do.) ----- Julian, G4ILO http://www.g4ilo.com/ G4ILO's Shack http://www.ham-directory.com/ Ham Directory -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Issues-with-cw-keying-line-in-N1MM-with-K3--tp475061p475467.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
