Jerome,

With MixW and the N4PY program, in MixW go Configure-TRCVR CAT/PTT-TEN TEC-Pegasus \ Jupiter (emulation mode) and fill in the software path. Now the MixW will import the frequency/andd/mode from MixW and control frequency/band/mode. I use a hardware interface from MixW to the serial port DRT or RTS line to the PTT line in the Jupiter in the Accessory plug. This line is the same as the CW key line. The N4PY has a CW keyboard, but I didn't try that while using MixW.

73,

I googled on this and I think there may have been some discussion on it in
2003, however I found nothing really relevant.  I'm running a Jupiter and
most of my time is spent on cw. Occasionally, when I can't make my bug go
fast enough, long enough, I wish to use a keyboard to send. Using  MixW2
meets my needs for a simple vox driven cw keyboard. N4py meets my needs for
rig control.  I'm using a rather lame p100 with 32 megs of  which ram works
ok using either programme, but as you might guess, not both at the same
time.

I'm going to be pushing my pIII 450 with 256 megs of ram down to the shack
and getting rid of the p100 very shortly. My question is: Will I then be
able to use the N4PY software set for ssb to control the rig and MixW2 to
send keyboard CW (MCW actually using the sound card and ssb.) and have them
both up on the screen at the same time? I've listened to the note generated
on my ft920, checked for crud on the sides and it seems ok as long as
everything is set up properly.  Or... is there a better way?

So... was I compute bound with the lame machine or is there something else
at work here?  Appologies if this has been asked before.
