I regularly use my K2/100 with an Acom 1000 for SSB and CW.
The Acom 1000 uses a vacuum relay for switching. I found that using the
standard T/R delay of 5ms led to some complaints of key clicks. So I use
a longer setting for semi break in (25-40ms) and that works well and
I've not had any complaints since.
Are you talking about a setting on the Acom? Or the K2? Do you know if
the clicks were heard on make or break? I've keyed vaccuum relay t/r
systems directly with the K2/100 with no problems. The 15 ms. or so
'headroom' (time between the activation of the amp key output and the
appearance of RF) provided by the K2 has been adequate to allow the
relay to close without hot switching.
