I said that, to a person who reported that my radio was generating clicks. "I am using K3, I should be perfectly clean," was my reply. My K2 was clicky.  I used it Qrp or LP until after I installed the Elecraft modification. Moreover, after curing Omni 6 and ft1000mp of clicks by installing and

We went to great lengths to create an ideal sigmoidal (raised cosine) rise/fall characteristic for our CW keying envelope. It is set at approximately 5 ms and will not be shortened for any reason. Elecraft rigs don't click. We also ensure that ALC never interferes with the CW keying waveform.
