Add the IC765 to your list of Icom radios with a negative holdover on the relay release in the full QSK mode. This is when using the 'accessory' ptt output (transistor keying) - it is just about zero

All this talk about relays and QSK has me wondering why aren't PIN diodes used more commonly? Then I began to read about some of the atrocious swtiching that goes on with some rigs. I have an AL-80A

The cost of the diodes and associated circuitry is more than a cheap relay. And they are susceptible to damage from lightning-created transients. I had an Alpha 86 with pin-diode switching that worke

The RJ-1 type of relay can also be completely silent if you mount it with a few drops of silicone seal or on a piece of soft rubber. Mount it directly to metal if you like to hear it click! -- 73, Vi

Good suggestion, Vic. Although typically, that's half the solution. Generally, cabling going to the relay's pins contributes much to sound conductivity. For example, RG-213/214, RG-142 and coaxial c
