<html><body><div>I will simplify it to single interface example:</div><div><br></div><div>One MKIII and one radio. Sure, I can use Win-Test software keyer and do not use MKIII Winkey, which works, and I can get lower than 20WPM. Just create keying interface by MKIII device router and use it by Win-Test.<br></div><div><br></div><div>This way, CW speed potentiometer on MKIII is useless.

This is somehow limited to 20WPM minimum. My question is: is it hardcoded into Win-Test executable, or is there any way to change this setting in ini or by other means ?</div><div><br></div><div>I will always have only one WinKey per computer. The question was about doing two stations, each with different MicroHam device, but both set to have CW speed set by MicroHam device potentiometer only.<br></div><div><br></div><div>About SN display - the contest is mixed mode, SSB mostly. I just would like to be able to transfer current SN to MicroHam WinKey and increment it with every QSO done, so it can be displayed on MicroHam device display.

</aside><br><blockquote data-email="n6tv@arrl.net"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">What rigs are you using? Modern rigs support CW keying via DTR pin, so you don't need the WinKey, you can just connect a paddle directly to each radio, and let Win-Test do all the keying with no WinKey, via DTR. If your rig doesn't support that, the keying circuits built into the <a href="https://bit.ly/S-BOX">S-BOX or S-BOX-USB</a> can key CW and PTT on 4 RCA connectors using two serial ports.<div><br></div><div>If you only want to use one WinKey try setting speed "Only by the Win-Test commands (Alt-V/F9/V10" instead of "Only by the Winkey Pot". Win-Test only supports one keying speed for both radios, not separate keying speed per radio. It doesn't support the connection of two WinKeys, just one. <br><div><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr">On Thu, Jun 24, 2021 at 1:23 PM <<a href="mailto:ok3nr@seznam.cz">ok3nr@seznam.cz</a>> wrote:<br></div></div></div></div></div><div class="-wm-gmail_quote"><blockquote class="-wm-gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div><div> I am trying to prepare Win-Test for upcoming VHF contest with two MicroHam devices: MKIII and u2R.
