I have built the keying interface for paddles and the computer as described
in the NA Manual.  The scheme works, but I haven't perfected the paddle
"sound" and speed.  The cw doesn't sound as clean as when I use the
computer or another keyer.  I want to play with the settings and hope to
get it right.  The paddle speed seems faster than the computer cw speed.
In the last contest I used an external keyer with the paddles and liked the
result better.

Let me know how you make out.

73, Tom, W1TO
