The internal keyer in the K3 is no slouch, but I find that the Logikey is more comfortable for me -- that is, I seem to make fewer errors than with the internal keyer. Something subtle about the timing. I set a small amount of compensation (K=2 or K=3 for Logikey users), to make up for the slight shortening of elements in the K3 when using an external keyer. This is entirely a matter of personal preference -- there's nothing wrong with the internal keyer. -- 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA http://www.qsl.net/k2vco ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
