 W9XT's VK-64 is essentially an external version of the Contest Card plus 
 a CW memory keyer built into one box.  The DVK would interface with 
 contest logging software through an LPT port.  It's not an especially
 compact box, though:

Boy, there you go. For the cost of a few tanks of gas, you're set! 

Just think, when you're out there parked in the EN07 weeds and the band's not 
cooperating, you can save your voice: F1 F1 F1 F1 F1 F1 (CQ CQ CQ CQ ... )
