  1. We had an incredible month of November, ham radio is very much alive. Look for new kits in January, more details later.
  2. Added a "WK for Macs" page to the K1EL website last night. Most of our kits are available again, except K42 which is out to late October.
  3. We will re-enable ordering of WKUSB and K12 kits this evening. Our new email address is k1el.kitsinfo@gmail.com
  4. Wow, 12:30 AM again and I'm answering customer emails..... sleep what's that ?
  5. Riding the wave of post Field Day sales. Use WKUSB once and you are hooked !
  6. The week before Field Day is stressful, folks wait till the last minute to get their WKUSBs hooked up. Other contests aren't like this ;)
  7. Currently working on the new universal front panel kit. An LCD display and encoder that communicates to a host over a simple serial port.
  8. We are quickly burning through the 2nd batch of K42 kits, unbelievable.
  9. What do you do when you have 10 great kit ideas but only time to do two of them ?
  10. New keyer kit now in beta test, will have it ready to sell by end of June: a replacement for the WKserial kit. Two more new kits to follow.
  11. Took the long weekend off, could use three or four more :)
  12. WKUSB enclosures arrived today, we can now resume shipping kits.
  13. Lots of nice USB utilities on the FTDI site that can be used with WKUSB: http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utilities.htm
  14. Rev A K42 upgrade kit officially announced today.
  15. WB8ELK gave a talk about balloon beacons at the Dayton Hamfest and mentioned using our KID2 IC. I think it may be time for a design update.
  16. Hope to get the K42 upgrade posted on website today or tomorrow. We are behind shipping WKUSBs and K42s, parts due in this week.
  17. K1EL Systems is now on Twitter. Follow us for latest news on CW Keyers and Amateur Radio Kits
