The person who told you about the clicks was probably 100% correct. The fact
is, most of the people you'll work today on CW wouldn't know a click if they
heard it, or how to check for clicks. I detected the problem on my TR7 a while
back and was very fortunate to find someone who had the solution. It's a
rather simple fix that really works. Check here:
http://www.k8ac.net/KeyClicks.html
Check out your TR7 clicks before and after the fixes to see the results. I ran
the TR7 into a dummy load at about 100W output and listened to the signal on my
Icom 781. I tuned across the signal from zero beat until the clicks were no
longer heard, and noted the signal strength at points along the way. The fixes
made a tremendous reduction in the clicks, with the remaining click bandwidth
no greater than that of my 781.
Best of luck!

Subject: [Drakelist] TR7 and key click
I was told last night on 40 mtr CW that my beloved TR7 has key clicks.
This is the first time I have been told that. Have always gotten sounds
great comments on CW.
When I listen on my Omni VII to the TR7, I do hear key clicks.
When I listen to my Omni VII on the TR7, I do not hear any key clicks.
This do sit on the same desk.
Suggestions?
Comments?
Tnx.
