[RTTY] wireless keyboard/mouse combo

Since early January I've been using a slightly simpler Logitech wireless
keyboard, model Y-RC-14, and really love it.  It comes packaged with a
cordless mouse - non-optical - which works very reliably so far.  The
feedpoint of one of my zepps is less than 30 feet from the shack, but there
have been absolutely no problems with RFI,  even with the little AL-811 amp
pumping 300 watts.
