[WT-support] K1EL WinKey switches PTT during CQ

[Bob Wilson, N6TV]

What type of transceiver are you keying?  Modern radios have built-in CW
and PTT keying available via the virtual COM port DTR pin, making the use
of a WinKey unnecessary.

See this presentation for examples:   https://bit.ly/USBserial2021

What are your WinKey configuration options (type WKSETUP [Enter] and attach
a screenshot).  Did you select these options?
