Roy, In the Remoterig keyer setup there is an auto-char-space option, isn't that what you need?
It is also possible to use a Winkeyer with Remoterig, I have done several times when contesting remotely. 73 de Björn, SM0MDG SE0X Björn Mohr | [email protected] | Facebook Telephone | +46-8-559 25 745 | Skype On 11 dec 2012, at 11:15, R.S.Hradilek <[email protected]> wrote: > I don't have a K3/0 yet, and need to make sure I can use it with > Winkey. > > The internal keyer in the K3 would be fine, if only it supported > AUTOSPACE.
