George, I would think a much better idea would be to replace the relay(s) in the amp with faster ones. If you want fast as well as high power, I might suggest the KiloVac HC-1 vaccuum relays. Take a look at http://www.mgs4u.com/relay.htm - they are priced at less than $40 a pair and will handle the amp switching marvelously even with fast QSK. The only drawback is the 26.5 volt coil, but an enterprising ham should be able to come up with a suitable power source.
A pin diode T/R switch is yet another option for silent switching. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > Does anyone use the Ampsequencer, and if so, what are your > opinions on it?
