1. [TenTec] The QSK of QSK (score: 1)

It's probably safe to say that the majority of CW ops using radios with good filtering systems to reduce background noise and proper sidetone adjustment prefer QSK - running QSK without getting the s

I own six radios that do very acceptable QSK. They are a K2/100, Omni A, Omni V, TS-850, FT100D, and IC-746. To say that Ten Tec radios are the only radios that do acceptable QSK (or even good QSK) i

Biased? If it's a bias, it's a bias based on experience. Since QSK is a MUST for me, I won't buy a rig that doesn't do acceptable QSK. But more to the point. When I started doing ham radio (in 1955),

No, the problem is not that they do not use VOX, it is that in the pileup they call more than once. If everybody did as they are suppose to do, which is to give their cpmplete call once, DXi'ing woul

With skill, and with the best QSK radios, ABSOLUTELY! Especially when the DX is working split! And remember, good operating is about SKILL, COURTESY, and GOOD JUDGEMENT. There are differences between

Anyone can work lots of DX (and score big in contests with big power and big antennas. This is NOT a measure of operating skill. It takes skill to do it with low power and mediocre antennas. On the o

Hi Jim, Some would argue that it takes a masochistic streak to do it with low power and mediocre antennas. I mean, if I turn down my power and antenna gain so the guy on the other end can't hear me,

On the other hand, Bill notes that while he does not use a mode on his radios called full QSK, he DOES listen often using his foot switch. That's correct. I first used QSK with the E.F. Johnson T-R S

I would say the opposite. Most current award and contest structures reward those who buy more of the most expensive gear and assemble the biggest stations. They cater to the the rich, not to ordinary

PIN-diode amp might be OK, but most current QSK amps (mine included) use vacuum relays. I simply don't like the idea of those relays using up their finite number of lifetime cycles every time I send

With respect, Jim, I find that a false premise. Not everyone can work lots of DX or score big in a contest with QRO and large antennas. A poor operator with high power and large antennas is still a p
