Hi Mark.

I have been using CTWin for contesting from here at home for several 
years.  The LPT port keying seems excellent to me.  Running XP-Home 
on a Dell 2.8 MHz P4.

However, at N3RS, we are relegated to CT-DOS, to enable us to use the 
DVPs that we have for each station in our Multi-op setup.  It sure 
would be nice for Ken to take Dave up on his offer of the software 
headstart on a sound card interface for CT.  Hint, hint.
