[WT-support] CW transmission problem

[Wolfgang Schwarz -DK9VZ-]

Hej Kim

this problem is well known and occurs afaik with all Microham devices
as well as some other brand containing the Winkey Chip.
We have been waiting for at least a workaround for years and decided than
to not use Microham/Winkey any longer.

Sorry to have no better answer for you.
Maybe the development team has one in the meantime?

By the way. The Microham USB3-interface works well, because it doesn´t
use a Winkey chip.
