A bit of a break - CW keyer

I took some time out from the K1 to build a keyer interface cable, so that I can generate CW from my PC. The simple design (from Ralph WB8DQT) worked first time. I used a BF199 transistor and a 1N4001 diode instead of the components shown on Ralph's website.

After some off-air tests, I made my first 2-way-computer-assisted-CW QSO with 4N0NS, a special event station in Serbia.
