Fred and all, That is something to be heeded. The Elecraft example is that the K2 key-clicks were not a problem until the KPA100 was introduced. The added gain of the KPA100 caused that problem to be amplified (along with the signal). Elecraft responded with the Keying Waveshape Mod kit which corrected the situation.
