Building the K1EL WKUSB Keyer
I’ve posted a page detailing my recent K1EL WKUSB keyer project. This was one of the best ham radio kit projects that I’ve built to-date. Clear instructions, a decent enclosure, and the dirty work already done (i.e. surface mount IC already mounted!)… resulting in a finished product that works good and looks great.
My previous Morse Code keyer kits from K1EL are the K20 and the WinKey (original RS232 keyer from Steve). Those kits also went together easily and worked fb, however, I have always struggled to find an enclosure that looked good. My homebrew kit enclosures have always looked… uh…. homebrew.
Unlike those previous keyer projects where I was on my own to provide an enclosure, the WKUSB provides one.
It was a fun project. I’ll eventually provide a review on the ham radio reviews pages, but for now, let me say that this kit was worth the effort.
