Release Information v4.4.0:
- Bugfix (#255): K1EL WinKey USB CW timing becomes very poor
(Farnsworth style) when PTT delay is default 50 ms. This was caused
by too low hardcoded value (80ms) of the PTT Tail delay. This delay
is now configurable in the Winkey Properties Dialog Box.
Tks F5JSD, SM5AJV, KL7RA and N6TV.
- Added some new features of the WK2 (WKUSB) for the PTT Tail.
Tks F5JSD, K1EL.

Contest Recorder Module. Tks N6TV, NR5M.

A new directory on our download repository has been created to
