Bob, Tony qnd all, Have you tried setting the menu item 'T-R Hold' to 0.00 or 0.01? The firmware defaults this setting to 0.05. If my dot time calculation is anywhere close, a setting of 0.00 should allow you to hear between dits up to about 60 wpm. With a setting of 0.05, you will only hear between characters above 20 wpm.
Set the PF1 or PF2 buttons for T-R hold should you want to change it more quickly than accessing the menu. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > Hi Bob, > You hit on a disappointment of mine - the K2 does not have true QSK.
