Thanks Bill, I don't *think* I received any special treatment from the factory, I just sent and email to the guy that created the transceiver. Amazing. I got a response in less than an hour, a quote from an actual user of my configuration. To those reading this, Elecraft will spoil you for life, never think about buying anything other - hi.
Yes, I turned off QSK and have a decent long delay in semi-break in. I had a QSO with NH6SV tonight and he reports a clean signal st 599. I thought I had Tom cornered on no reason to install that soft key but I like his answer. In addition, I had the amp apart several times today and it provided me with a renewed respect for that little innocent looking line. ;-) Beforte that comment he made, I would not have bothered shutting off both units before connecting / disconnecting. Until or unless I install soft key, will maintain that procedure. .. [Elecraft] CORRECTION Re: SB-221 for K3 need some help. Bill W5WVO w5wvo at cybermesa.net Sun Aug 31 17:17:45 EDT 2008 Oops, correction. Looks like the K3 will handle the SB-220's T-R relay coil voltage after all. Sorry about that, my bad. You still need to worry about the closure timing, though. I have my K3 set to the max (20 ms) and there doesn't SEEM to be a probelm -- but I've never actually measured how longs it takes the original Heath frame relay to close. You really should do that.
