<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hi Bob and folks,<br>
<br>
hmm... I didn't touch the CW speed knob on my MK2 at all during
the contest. Just used ALT-F9/F10 and the ++ and -- commands in
the WT CW messages, but every now and then, the ++ AND(!) the
consecutive -- was ignored by WT or WK or MK2 or whatever... it
just stayed at the original speed. And then, for the next couple
of messages, it was doing as designed, just till it failed again.
Speed pot min setting for WK inside the MicroHam Device Router is
15, max is 40, and in WT I used speeds from around 25 to 35 wpm.
So this was well within the bounds, thus it should have been OK,
according to your suggestion, Bob.<br>
<br>
I have tried the "CW message and paddle speeds" both set to
"Independent" or </font><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">"Synchronized",
and the speed settings set to both "Only by the WinKey pot" or
"Only by the WT commands...", and it occurs in each of those
settings.<br>
<br>
I know, that is somewhat different to George's problem, but our
effects may have a common cause.<br>
<br>
Using WT 4.7.0-dev Rev. 458 and MicroHAM Device Router 7.7.1.<br>

<div>Bottom line, Win-Test assumes a speed pot range of 20 WPM to
60 WPM. If you use any other ranges, the speeds can get out of
sync. When you change speed with Win-Test, the POT does <i>not</i> move
to track the new speed, so its position is immediately out of
sync. Slightly touching it or some other vibration might cause
a resync to pot speed, and a speed jump.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All WinKey / Win-Test speed jump issues go away if you forget
about touching the speed knob and only use Win-Test to change
speeds, that is, use "the only by the Win-Test commands" option

<div>Here is a question for both the WT and Microham
support reflectors:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I find that occasionally the speed will jump
up many wpm when I send a "TU K5KG" message from the
"+" key. I will be running and running, and sending
TU K5KG with the + key QSO after QSO. Then, every now
and then, when I send TU K5KG from the + key, the
speed will jump up to lightning fast (maybe 50 wpm).
I'd appreciate any ideas as to why this happens, and
what to do to prevent it.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here is my current set up: Microham CW Keyer,
WinTest 4.6, K3. Although, this is my current set up,
the speed jump up also happened with WT 3.n and an
Icom Pro3. Bottom line, it has been happening for
several years. The common elements seem to be WT and
the CW Keyer.</div>
