Hi Steve the popping sound is most noticeable when sending CW...for example, it I were sending at 15 wpm and sending dit dah dit dah....the beginning of the dah would cause that popping (its always t
Thanks Joe--have tried that to minimize it as well. Perhaps when your DDS sidetone arrives it may improve things (?)...I may adjust teh tone for now so that it is not as bass heavy--that may help as
Folks, 2nd time around with this msg...I realize I am the proverbial day late and dollar short for the above noted board, but am wondering if there are any extras out there you may be willing to part
Thanks to John, kb2huk, I have a new board but require parts. I have the parts list but recall someone was selling kits of parts with the programmed chip? 73 scott va3ied ____________________________

I know this topic has been discussed to one extent or another but there has been little feedback in terms of how the perceived 'improvements' were measured. Given I was putting an order in for some p
