[WriteLog] CW direct keying

[Jay WS7I]

Everything you need.  This is on my EWARG (Eastern Washington Amateur 
Radio Group) page. htt://www.ewarg.org  Its down at the bottom of the 
main page and a PDF.  I would add
one more for CW that is just like the PTT and FSK.

I’ve built the interfaces from Don’s diagram and worked great, were quick and fast interface solution.  Perhaps with little more time and planning available I’d have built the optoisolators too.
