Hey David/K6LL and Bill/AK0A (and the rest of the group)

This solve my problem with the LPT keying the transmitter.  

Now the CW is very choppy.  I have shutdown all the unused 
programs, ie AVG, BOClean, Internet connection...  the problems 
appears to continue.  

I am using a wireless mouse, could that be the problem????

Any ideas ???

Thanks
