[CQ-Contest] What does this question mean?

The K2 is a pretty fast rise envelope - far shorter in time than what I set
my 756 Pro2 so as to not to have clicks.

The scope is set to 5 ms/div and its a 24 million sample persistence trace.

If you were close running QRP or running 100 watts,  clicks from the K2
are possible.

73,
