Hi Rich:
I wish I could agree with Tim here, but I'm afraid I can't.
Personal opinion of N0SS follows... read it for what little it's worth...!
The QSK in the K2 is decent, but not as good as most TenTecs or even my
venerable old TS-930S.
I can readily copy signals between words up to about 35 WPM, but certainly
not between characters... the TenTecs and my '930 could.
Do I find this to be a problem? Nah... as long and I can hear the other guy
between words (I'm from Missouri and we don't use long words), I'm quite happy.
I DO enjoy using the K2 and in contests and in rag chews, I've not found
the slight QSK latency to be problematic for me.
YMMV.
73,
Tom N0SS

QSK just as good or better than Ten Tec. K2 is a cw ops dream.

Subject: [Elecraft] Ready to buy K2/100 - question on CW qsk
Hello all-
I think the K2 looks like great rig. But, how quick is QSK? Can you hear
the receiver between dits on the cw transmit when using QSK? I like the
fast response of my TS-850 and would hope the K2 would be able to perform
at least as well as the TS-850 (now sold as seed money for the K2)
Your opinions are appreciated.
Tnx
Rich WE8T
