[WT-support] Win-Test, Microham and WinKey

Hi Matthias et al.

Unfortunately, some of us need different WinKey configurations for comfortable use of the paddle (DL5RMH: reverse, DL6RAI: Iambic A, no dash/dot memory, DK4YJ: Iambic B, dash/dot memory and so on...)

But the WinKey-configuration is grayed out in the router while the port is opened by WinTest. So the only way we found is to disable WinKey in the interface menue in WinTest, change into the router, do the right settings, change back to WinTest and enable WinKey again. Not to easy while running a contest :-)

Unfortunately, not for now.

We are discussing this matter with Jozef OM7ZZ. It also applies to the 
initial speed settings of the WinKey which must match the WT range for 
the best experience when speeds are sync'ed (see my previous post dated 
23/5/2008 - Tech notes section - Part 1/).

The best way today would be to automate all the changes by writing a 
small macro with a program like AutoHotKey (http://www.autohotkey.com/). 
Very easy, and very flexible.
