Solid Performer Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
With 2 months of use, including some RTTY and CW contesting, the Digi Keyer II has performed flawlessly with my FT-2000D using DX4WIN, N1MM, MMTTY, and DigiPan software. It allowed me to replace my K1EL WinKey USB, SignaLink USB, and USB to serial converter with a single small box.

Functionally I especially like the ability to copy RTTY on both the Main and Sub VFO at the same time. The ability to use true FSK transmit is a real plus over sound card solutions.

The hardware is well built using quality components. The enclosure is metal providing good shielding. There is no RFI to or from the Digi Keyer II.

The microHAM router software runs perfectly on Windows 7. It is necessary to configure the internal hardware jumpers for your radio and the router for your ham software applications. Beyond that 15 minute job, installation is plug and play using the included radio and USB cables.
