Richard,

I noted in another post you mentioned you use PC generated CW. Set-up with
the WinKey option try again. 

I have run CW SO2R with the mH SO2R+ Keyer and don't remember your problem
when set-up with the WinKey option. I am pressed for time today, but as soon
as I can I will check your findings here and get back to you - most likely
direct if that is ok with you.

73 Eric.
