Hello,

I have been a dedicated CT user for many years, but I have missed an update of the user interface to comply with the Windows environment. While looking around for an alternative, I came across WT and downloaded the trial version. I liked it so much that I paid a license. I have not yet used it for serious contesting, but am beginning to get acquainted with the user interface.

I was somewhat disappointed when I realized that there was no CW keyer included in the SW. I like to connect my paddle directly to the LPT port, and use the same keyer as the program. As a workaround, I have seen that it is possible to run CT simultaneously and let the two programs share the key interface. It seems to run flawlessly. I would however prefer that you include a paddle interface into the program so that the speed control is common for the paddle and logging program.

I appreciate that WT supports a lot of contests, including VHF types, and it seems that there is an active community for support. I look forward to become a member of the gang.

73,

Svein, LA3BO
