The manual says that the maximum recommended power for PSK31 is 40W, and for higher duty cycle modes such as MFSK it is 25W. I'm not sure what the duty cycles are for those two modes - but 25W would probably be a safe level. > I see that there are several levels to set the fan at. You can set it to off, low speed, or high speed. Regardless of the setting, it will run at high speed when the heatsink is above 40 degrees celsius. > for RTTY, does this rig just work in AFSK, or can you make it work in FSK? AFSK only. > Now, for the microphones, I assume you need to get the SSB option. Yes. You will also need the SSB option for digital modes, including RTTY (otherwise you have no way to do AFSK). -- 73, Brian VE7NGR _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
