But that is a question for another time. This post is regarding an inverse
situation. Do Tentec QSK amps work appropriately with a non-Tentec but QSK
radio? In particular, will a TT Hercules II work with a Yaesu FT1000MP?
Yes. I've driven my Herc II and Titan 425s by using the Key Out of an
FT1000MP, TS850, K2, and K3 to drive the amplifier's PTT input. All of
these rigs have built-in delay that Keys the amp 8 msec or so before it
produces RF. This delay is adjustable in the K3 and the MP. It's good
enough for QSK up to about 25-30 WPM. As speed increases, you'll start
getting complaints that your keying is choppy.
