[TenTec] omni 6

[GARY HUBER]

It is possible to build a one or two transistor keying interface into either 
a serial or parallel port connector then connect it to the Omni key jack. I 
used a phono jack output on the connector. Seems like CT by K1EA has the 
interface schematics but the WinKeyer USB is a better interface with much 
much better keying rhythm.
