[RTTY] Keyboard tweak

[Elmar PD3EM]

Hi Bill,

I haven't seen any non-black keyboards for years......
Just recently I bought a Trust keyboard with build in LEDs, so the 
characters on the keyboard are lightened from the back.
See

Works great! But unfortunately for you, this keyboard is wired. Maybe 
they will have a wireless version in the future.
I have no RFI problems with this USB keyboard.
