Hello all
Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions about my keying problem with the
old FT-101E. I was wrong to *assume* that the 2 transistors were
saturated - they were not - the 101E takes about 0.5mA to activate the
sidetone osc, and about 6.0mA to activate the grid-block keying. Changing
the 2 resistors to 1k from 2.2k (with a +9V pull-up supply) has sorted the
problem.
