microHAM CW Keyer
Hi
I am trying to use a paddle connected to a microHAM CW keyer, locally connected to my PC while radio is in another room. WKFlex is a cool solution but comes with a slight delay.
I love using directly a paddle or a straight key and not a very big fan of computer generated CW :-)
Is anybody else experimenting or using this scenario?
Thanks

Yes, there will be a delay with any WinKeyer Remote solution as the WinKeyer has to wait until you finish the first character, decode it and then send the ASCII character to radio to be sent.
It is working as designed.

This one is for N1MM and you can do it at the same time. https://community.flexradio.com/discussion/8025988/n1mm-remote-cw-sidetone-one-solution#latest

I understand that drawback Mike. It is OK. It is working as expected.
I am just wondering if I really need the microHAM CW keyer or should I look at some other solutions.
I read somewhere about Serial over TCP. Would be possible to connect the Paddle this way?
I think this is a constant hunting for solutions to send CW with a paddle/key from your PC when the radio sit somewhere else in the world. CWX works fine but I tend to send faster from my paddle as I type :-)
I know you are more informed than us the "mortals" :-) about anything Flex Radio wise.
Any new ideas?
