I want to use a wireless keyboard, instead of using the wired keyboard supplied with the 2.0 A.T.U.
Someone knows which USB version for nano receiver must be used in the keyboard connection?

Adrian, many thanks for the information. I will ask for this numeric keyboard. Wonderful.
Adrian, I will use a wireless only numeric keyboard. The reason is to have a much cleaner desk, not having the micro cable as well as the ATU cable and sometimes the headphones cable when used.
Of course I am not going to use a complete keyboard for that.
I have to ask, why on earth would you even want to do this? Does everything have to be wireless? In any case, even though it may be feasible, why would you willingly swap a compact numeric keypad for a much larger keyboard, especially when only the numeric keys would work, the remaining 90% will be unusable, there does not seem to be any logical reason for doing this. I have certainly used a Logitech compact USB keyboard with the controller just to prove that indeed it could work, as well as another USB numeric keypad. In the case of the numeric keypad the automatic NUMLOCK assertion on power up did not occur so that this had to be enabled manually. I have tried four wireless keyboards, and in each case only the ENTER key worked. The SHIFT-8 keystroke to get the * symbol to enter a frequency did not work, so I guess the short answer is, No this won't work. I only tried these wireless keyboards because they were either lying around the shack, or I could borrow them to test for you.
