[WT-support] Win-key

[Don Beattie]

Simon,

First of all, the displayed speed on WT was clearly NOT the speed it was 
sending at.

Secondly, the function keys and paddle speed would separate (at one time, 
the paddle was at 12 wpm and the keys at about 35 !) This happened no matter 
which way the box on separate speed for paddle and keys was ticked in the 
WinKey say-up window (we tried both ways)

But I understand that there is a necessary firmware upgrade for EZMaster 
which may be part of the problem on one station here. But on the other we 
were using stand-alone old WinKey, with the same problem.

Any ideas ?

Don, G3BJ (& G5W)
