Per the Microham setup document for Writelog I had 'on LPT pin
16/COMM RTS' selected. I changed that by selecting 'none'. This seems
to have solved the problem. My K3 now returns to receive quickly
after sending a F-Key message.
That should have no effect with microHAM Router - nor will CW PTT Tail
in WriteLog's Setup Options CW/PTT. The only reason for setting
'on LPT pin 16/COMM RTS' is to keep Writelog from sending PTT ON/OFF
commands as CAT Commands.
The CW tail (and PTT or QSK) is controlled in microHAM Router on the
PTT Tab.
Note: be very careful that you do not put a trailing space on any of
your CW messages. WinKey will treat that space as a character and
"time it out" before beginning the PTT tail. At 40 WPM that single
trailing space adds slightly over 200 ms to the PTT tail.

I brought this up a couple weeks ago, which still appears to be a
problem. The problem being that my K3 would not return to receive
quickly enough after hitting an F-Key message. It was bad enough that I
would miss the first letter of a returning caller to my cq.
I think I may have solved the problem. I went into setup|ports and
selected the CW PTT tab.

I'll keep playing in the ARRL 10m contest to see if my fix is really a fix.
