* Adafruit GEMMA M0
* Adafruit Feather M0
You might even be able to get a Digispark (attiny85) to work,
but this may require a little hacking. Send me a patch, if you do!
It may also be possible to get this working on a DigiSpark.
I'm trying to convince Michele Giugliano to try :)
=== Similar projects
* Vail user Michele Giugliano's [MorsePaddle2USB](https://github.com/mgiugliano/MorsePaddle2USB),
which runs on a DigiSpark (attiny85). It only sends keystrokes, so you must keep the Vail
window focused: you can't switch to other apps and still transimit.
* Ham Radio Solutions sells a [USB Paddle Interface](https://hamradio.solutions/vband/)
which appears to be very similar to Michele's project. You must keep the Vail window focused.

If you prefer, you can wire a headphone jack up to GND, 11, and 12.
GND should be the sleeve, 11 the ring, and 12 the tip.

Make sure any straight key you plug in has a TS adapter (mono plug):
this will short pin 11 to ground and signal to the Arduino to
