That works for SSB, but it is also an outstanding way to have key clicks and
burn relays if you work CW.

Subject: Re: [TenTec] Argo V amp keying
Correct. If you don't want to modify your Argo V, another approach is to
get an RF-switched amp such as the Tokyo Hy-Power HL-100Bdx. It is a
100-watt amp originally designed for the FT-817, but works fine with the
Argo V.
US dealers do not carry it due to FCC rules, but it is perfectly legal for
licensed amateurs to import, for their own use, directly from THP or a
foreign dealer.
