I have it hooked up to my TS-2000, but there is no where to plug in the RTTY plug. The ACC2 port has a connector for it. Does anyone have any experience with the DigiKeyer and the TS-2000? I forgot about that. My FSK key on the Microham cable for the TS2000 just hangs loose. It appears to not be needed. I think I recall my brain being puzzled when it first arrived and concluding that that section of the cable was for another Kenwood, the 570. Just ingnore it. FSK RTTY and AFSK RTTY with my TS2000 and my Microkeyer works just fine, I assume the same will apply to your Digikeyer. I have no experience using it with a TS-2000, but I do own a DigiKeyer and I do use it with FSK on my FT-1000mp. Last night, I set up MMTTY and it works fine with FSK. Given a choice between AFSK and FSK, I'd definitely use FSK for RTTY whenever possible. Maybe it is less important to you. -- Brian -- http://users.wildblue.net/k7on/ Blessed are the cracked, for they shall let in the light.

I have no idea how something like this can be sold for such a low price ($30, I think it was at Wal-Mart) and that includes an outdoor sensor for that price. Needless to say, I have a spare sensor if I only have 1 atomic/WWV clock here and I bought it a couple years ago at CVS when they opened some stores and had special coupons for any purchase. I got it for practically nothing after the coupons, $5 I am sure. It is not especially fancy, but has time/date and indoor temperature. In amateur radio, I think, the market is fairly small and sometimes prices reflect it. In retail, special promotions, loss leaders etc can provide some bargains for related items that are general consumer products. I don't think it always has to be slave labor, etc to get a good bargain from time to time. -- Brian -- http://users.wildblue.net/k7on/ Blessed are the cracked, for they shall let in the light.
