[WT-support] Again: MK2 & Delay

Hello!

I was trying to use my MK2R+ as voicekeyer for SO1R this weekend (FD), 
and I experienced this strange delay of about 1s between hitting F1 and 
the start of the voicekeyer. When I changed from MK2R+ to MKII (which is 
wrong) in the "configure interfaces" tab, the delay vanished. This 
worked well for this application, but doesn´t sound like a good solution 
when I want to use the complete MK2R+ functionality. I played around 
with all setting I can think of, restartet the PC etc, but couldn´t get 
rid of the delay. Any hints what I could try?

73s,

Matthias, DK4YJ

>>Second, since you have a microHAM microKeyer II, not an MK2R box, next

>>MK2R/MK2R+" to "microHAM MK/MKII", and try at least 57600 baud for the 
>>MKII (57600 8-N-1).  I'm not sure what to set for DTR and RTS, but you
