Vic,
Another thing to check is your coax - a loose coax or one that has a
failed connection to the shield will behave as you have experienced. It
may transmit OK, but is slow returning a good path for receive.
Admittedly, it should fault regardless of CW or SSB, but is worth a look
in any case. The best check is to substitute another coax.

Hi All,
I have a K2/100 feeding a KPA100 in an EC2 case. I have a foot switch and cw
paddle connected to the key socket at the rear of the K2.
I have a problem with the tx/rx switching. When on cw the tx / rx switching
works just fine, but when on SSB and I press the footswitch OR key the
paddle OR the PTT switch on the mic socket , the K2 switches into tx mode
OK but when I release Ptt switch (any of the three ) the rig returns to rx
but the received volume is severely attenuated. Only careful listening
confirms that it is actually receiving.
