Hi Greg, Many thanks indeed - setting the TX DLY to 10 restored the CW to normal operation. I had set TX DLY to 20 to protect the amp antenna relays (open-frame), of which we have lost three in two amps during 2008.
I'll install vacuum relays before ARRL SSB. Thanks again. 73, Ken ZL1AIH --- On Thu, 26/2/09, Greg - AB7R <[email protected]> wrote: From: Greg - AB7R <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 choppy CW To: [email protected], "Robert Mccormack" <[email protected]> Received: Thursday, 26 February, 2009, 12:49 PM Set the TX DLY menu item to a lower setting....I found that anything below 10 worked OK. ------------------------- 73, Greg - AB7R Whidbey Island WA NA-065 On Wed Feb 25 15:41 , Robert Mccormack sent: >At ZM1A (multi-two) during the ARRL DX CW contest we received some reports of "choppy" CW when CT was keying via the 'Key' socket. >Monitoring the signal with a K2 (dummy load in antenna socket) ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
