Interesting question. I've wondered about this for a while and had an opportunity to try my Centaur amplifier with a FT-2000 (in place of my usual Paragon) in full QSK mode this weekend.

What I did was hook an external keyer to the "key in" jack of the amplifier and hooked the amplifier "key out" to one of the FT-2000 key jacks, thus taking advantage of the sequencing in the TT amp. The FT-2000 key jack was set to operate without the internal keyer. It seemed to work fine and reports were that the keying sounded the same either semi or full QSK.

I did have a xmit lock-up but only on 80 m, so most probably a local grounding issue, not a systematic problem of the connections.

Good to know about the possibilities!

If any one is using the Pro III with a Ten-Tec Titan III. I have some questions
about what hook up you use. Particularly with QSK CW.
Thanks,
