Thanks for your advices.

Sorry but it didn't work.
I have monitored the port with PortMon and I think the
reason is the following:

WT initiates Winkeyer (hex):

00 03     <-- Close Host
00 00 FF <-- Calibrate  old command not used by WK2
00 04  55   <--  Echo test
00 02  <--  Host Open
01 0A  <-- side tone control
03 31 <-- weight
04 05 08 <-- PTT lead and tail
05 14 28 FF <-- speed pot setup
09 06  <- pin configuration
0E 94 <-- Winkeyer mode
07   <-- Get speed pot
02 1D <-- Set WPM Speed

So I think when WT Close and Open Host the former Farnsworth
command will be forgotten, i.e. the default parameter will used.

So  pleeeeease!
Implement the WK2-commands and disable Farnsworth.
