Mine works fine. I don't remember the diodes I used, but they were tiny (tiny enough to fit inside the sub-miniture jack) and work FB. I think it was a pack of 50 from Radio Shack for a few bucks. I can lookup the type if it matters.
I use it both ways. I use the keyer to send ........ when on the straight key (unfortunately, I send that a lot!) and I use the straight key to send exagerated elements when the copy is wrong a few times on the keyer (I can't think of an example right now). Dan / WG4S / K2 #2456 <snip> I would really like the autodetect to work properly for just this reason. </snip> _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
