There are various configurations for the keyer.
Take a look at the documentation on the cD.

The K3 has a reasonable reader on board which can be read with the Hampod

I believe that a number of list members are currently using the winkeyer,
and I am in the process of having one assembled for me.  I believe that CW
can be sent with a keyboard plugged directly into the winkeyer, or it can be
sent from the computer keyboard if the winkeyer is plugged into the computer
via USB cable.

As for you statement concerning ease of sending Vs. receiving, I totally
disagree with you.  I can copy far better than I can send due to shakiness
in my right hand due to extensive use of powerful narcotic pain killers.
With luck, I will be on the air with my winkeyer in a few more days.  Also,
if you think that you do well working CW barefoot, try working CW with 1500
watts!

Hi;
I'm totally clewless about this keyer.  Sounds like it lets you 
send c w via a keyboard.  Sending isn't nearly as hard as 
receiveing.  Has anyone successfully used software to decode c w? 
Fortunately or unfortunately I think you can do very much more 
with 100 wats and c w rather than phone.
As for buying a house where you can put up an h f antenna, make 
certain you take a trusted ham with you.  I was told that this 
house should be no problem.  unfortunately they neglected to 
notice or mention the power line that goes diagnally across my 
yard.
