   As many have learned, Windows is not a Real-time operating system (RTOS) and sending perfect CW can be problematic. With it's simple, 1-byte, easy to implement command structure the Hamation Serial Keyer is the perfect solution.

   This keyer uses simple hardware handshaking so there is no need to constantly check the COM port for Ctrl-Q and Ctrl-S. Instead, simply test the state of the CTS line before sending CW characters. Commands bytes may be sent at anytime regardless of the state of CTS.

   The keyer has a programmable PTT delay which inserts a short delay after asserting PTT and before sending CW characters, thus preventing hot switching of the amplifier relays.
