Hello Brian,
My opinion is that with digital processing it is impossible to eliminate the
delay completely, so if sidetone is preferred it needs to be generated at
the key.
It is not impossible at all. One just has to avoid errors.
The PowerSDR software runs fine with a Delta44 soundcard

So why can I send OK with my 5000 but had the same results as complained about
when using the 1500?

H. Thanks for your post, Jerry. Sounds as if I got bad info when I was
told that the lag was less than the 3000. That
I'm not an avid CW op, I occasionally use a straight key at a
pedestrian speed and my 1500 works for that. I'm curious though, don't
most diehard CW ops prefer an external keyer over a built in keyer in
the first place? Don't the external ones usually have a lot more

Rick, I did the same thing, although I had the keyer already, and run a
Flex 5000.

adjust speed easily. Couldn't imagine having to get my hand to a mouse,
