I forgot one choice:

    4.  What paddle feature?


See RELEASE9.TXT:

9.89.002 2003-03-23

* Thanks to N6TV, added paddle support for CW. The startup menu
  offers NONE, SuperCMOS, CurtisA, CurtisB and BUG.

  Use the following text commands to select a keyer type
  while in the program.

	NOKEYER, SUPERCMOS, CURTISA, CURTISB, BUG

* There is a new text command to specify the time PTT is asserted before 
  keying starts. This is PTTDELAY. Enter the number of milliseconds delay your
  amplifier needs. Minimum delay is 0 ms, maximum is 255 ms.

* The CW paddles use the same pinouts as NA and TR. LPT pin 13 is dot, pin 12 
  is dash. If you LPT port does not have pullups on pins 12,13, you will need
  to add 10K resistors from Pin12 to Pin 14 and from Pin 13 to Pin 14 on your 
  LPT port.
