WinWarbler (DXLab Suite) also supports "KY" for the Kenwood and Elecraft radios that implement it. > 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.

The "KY solution" has too many issues for it to be adopted by the major contest logging software. 1) once sent to the radio, data can not be edited. Thus it is not possible to implement "corrections in the buffer." 2) The Kenwood implementation requires data be sent in 24 character "chunks" vs. random length for Elecraft 3) KY is supported in only six radios (TS-480,570,870,2000 and Elecraft K2,K3) 73, ...
