[ct-user] usb CW keying CTWIN

[N7MAL]

Actually Ken you are pretty much modern. Most modern day 'home' computers, 
which is what 95% of us use, have one serial and one parallel port. I just 
had to replace all our 'home' computers because of a lightening strike. The 
parallel port works for CW and the serial port is free for rig control(or 
whatever). The handwriting is on the wall, however, because all three of 
these computers had 4 usb ports( 2 in front and 2 in back).
Good luck...73

It sounds like I have some work to do to get into the modern era. At 
present, CT-WIN accesses the LPT directly for CW sending.
