Are there factors that make one radio far easier to send
cw with than
another or is it just my imagination? If so - what are the
factors that affect how sending cw "feels"? Thanks folks.
Tim -
If you are using the internal keyers in both rigs, there may
be far more difference than A and B modes.
The keyer in the K2 is very good for my taste, but each
person has a different preference. Besides A and B modes,
the method of weighting, auto completion of elements and
autospacing are just a few variables that can change from
keyer to keyer.
I prefer the Curtis timing and A mode. But, the best keyer
I have ever used is the Idiom Press CMOS 2. It, and the
later incarnations, have about 9 different timing methods
that are user selectable. Eventually you find one you like.
Some of the recent keyer kits I have tried have timing I
just can't get used to and changing weighting is a real
adventure on some of them.
Bottom line is that keyers differ widely.
