Tom:
It's my understanding (though I've never used it) that it responds to a squeeze by repeating the last side closed. Thus, holding the dot side produces a string of dots, dash side dashes. Squeeze dot/dash give a dot followed by a string of dashes, while dash/dot produces a dash followed by a string of dots. There is no iambic element.

Care to enlighten us with a bit of description of "Ultimatic Keying"...?

I don't use the K2's keyer AS an iambic keyer, even though the feature's available.

What features does Ultimatic Keying have? And what keyers offer it?

Hello.

Is there a way to get the K2 to have Ultimatic Keying ?
I presume it has to do with the base firmware.

I never developed the fine art of iambic (neither A or B) keying, so
I more or less slap the paddle left and right when I'm sending.
The HexKey stays put, by the way.
From what I've read in another list it might be right for me.

Any quick mod that can be done or is anyone looking into it?

I have looked at the schematic
and found the keyer stuff in the Control Board at J7,
stopped their since that's my technical extend.

tnx.
