Bob,

Add to this the current state of art - many run 2Tone as primary window and Gritty by VE3NEA as the 2nd windows and also use the venerable and dependable MMTTY as a third option.

I now use that combo and keyboard operation most of the time and I know several contesters who do this. 

The hover with mouse functionality combined with the right click to send functionality is another great way to operate with N1MM. You could start with MMTTY to get comfortable and then add the others which you prefer.

I use the AFSK transmit mode from 2Tone at present and about to build a pair of Arduino based Tiny FSK units for SO2R FSK Tx.

I will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
