He is using QSK and using up life cycle of relays in no time. Milion cycles
can be "spent" in few contests when using QSK - relays working on and off with
every dash and dot. I use foot switch and switch transmit/receive when I want
to and while no signals going through relay contacts. No arcing - no premature
death to relays = happy ham.
