[SD-User] WKUSB Questions

[Mike Walsh]

Hi,

This is my first post so, hello to everyone.

I used SD in the recent CQ WW CW contest.  It was the first time I've tried to use a logging program and I really liked using SD after getting used to it.  However, I did have some questions/comments about using SD with the WKUSB keyer.

First, WKUSB has two key outputs.  Is there any way to switch between them from SD?  My WKUSB is connected to two rigs and, since I couldn't find a way to switch WKUSB outputs from SD, I had to physically swap connectors when I switched rigs.

Second, SD seemed to report the wrong WKUSB pot wpm value.  I set the program up for MINWPM 18 and WPMRANGE 15.  If I'm understanding correctly, this should give a range of 18 to 33 wpm and, in fact, this does seem to be the case.  However, the value under the callsign entry line varies from 18 to 25 for the full pot excursion.  Am I misunderstanding something?

Thanks and 73,
