Re: [Elecraft] Which hand-held PTT switch? OT

Sorry for the thread drift, but, has there ever been an investigation into response time of hitting the PTT and beginning to speak? Occasionally I hear the first syllable being lost and I've wondered if this is due to time delays in the equipment or the user, or both. Brings back memories of

Re: [Elecraft] Which hand-held PTT switch?

Peter, I am assuming that you are using a K3. On my K2 I use a headset. I have a hand key and a set of paddles hooked to the K2. On SSB I merely depress the hand key or the dot paddle to key the transmitter. Don't know if this works on the K3. 73, George NC5G Which handheld PTT switch do you

[Elecraft] Which hand-held PTT switch?

Which handheld PTT switch do you like and where did you get it? Did it already have a RCA connector on it or did you have to rig one yourself? I'm in the middle of the CQ WW contest and finding I could really use this. Thanks W0VLL __

Re: [Elecraft] Which hand-held PTT switch?

Don't use myself but another plus for the heil footset is the two position micro switch which allows keying two equipments. First would key the amp and then with slight delay, keys the transceiver. Lot of people like that feature. I like vox. > To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net > From:

Re: [Elecraft] Which hand-held PTT switch?

Although I made my own applications, Bob Heil has a nice foot switch that works as a "stomp to talk" switch. Also Granger has an assortment of foot switches although the may a bit over kill for the application. For my station, I made a pigtail using some small coax like RG-177 or 174, {can't

Re: [Elecraft] Which hand-held PTT switch?

I always use VOX, directional microphones, and headphones. I can't imagine depressing a footswitch every time I transmit. I wouldn't want to tie up one hand for a PTT switch in a contest either. 73, Jim N7US -Original Message- Not a direct answer to your question, but I use a foot

Re: [Elecraft] Which hand-held PTT switch?

Not a direct answer to your question, but I use a foot pedal with a headset/boom mic combination. That way, my hands are completely free for logging and making station adjustments. 73 de, Ian, KM4IK On Oct 24, 2015 11:32 AM, "Peter Pauly" wrote: > Which handheld PTT switch do

Re: [Elecraft] Which hand-held PTT switch?

http://www.pttpro.com/switches.htm Picked one up for Field Day. Some folks didn't like using a foot switch, and too much noise QRM for VOX. Looks like the price went up a bit since I ordered mine. Ron, WD4AHZ __ Elecraft mailing

Re: [Elecraft] Which hand-held PTT switch?

I have the Heil Proset K2 and when contesting I use VOX I did spend the cash and got the Heil trigger switch that plugs in the PTT port of the adapter set. On 10/24/2015 10:30 AM, Peter Pauly wrote: Which handheld PTT switch do you like and where did you get it? Did it already have a RCA

Re: [Elecraft] Dropped First Syllable

I have seen that with both PTT and VOX in Ham and commercial operations. The VOX issue is well known. In PTT some operators develop the habit of starting to speak before fully depressing the PTT switch. I've watched operators do that repeatedly without realizing it even after they were aware that

Re: [Elecraft] Dropped First Syllable

The original meaning of the acronym PTT was "Push, Then Talk." Somewhere in history, the comma was dropped and "Then" became "To.":-) I had a colleague [retired Col] who essentially never mastered "Point and Click" regardless of how many times I explained, "First point to the 'thing', then

Re: [Elecraft] JT65 audio noise

use the Lo <--CUT --> Hi to expand the bandwidth to 0 or 100 on the low end and 4000 or 4100 on the top end. I set this up in the II setting so I can return to it easily. Once you have set it up it should stay in memory the next time you are in DATA on that band. Although sometimes I find I have

I'm having an issue with unstable power output using digital modes on 40m above about 20 watts. All other bands seem to be ok. My antenna setup is as follows: a loop consisting of about 245 feet of wire, feed line consists of about 21 feet of 450 ohm ladderline to an Elecraft BL2 balun, then

It's a good habit for FM repeater use as well. Give the repeater some unmodulated RF to switch itself on. 73 Bill AE6JV On 10/24/15 at 6:51 PM, k2...@kanafi.org (Phil Kane) wrote: I teach beginners to push the switch, take a breath, and then start talking. Works for VOX with some
