[TenTec] Pwr Amplifier Titan II

I happen to own a TS-870 and use it with a TT Hercules amp in QSK mode. 
My amp's relay system is probably very similar to that of the Titan's. 
For QSK, I use an external keyer and feed the keyer's output directly to 
the amplifier's "key in" jack. Then I run a cable from the amp's "key 
out" jack to the key input of the 870. Due to the delay of the amp's 
relay, I add some weight to the keyer and it works perfectly. If you use 
the sidetone in the rig, you will experience a slight delay due to keying 
system in the amp which takes a few minutes to get used to. One could 
listen to the keyer's sidetone instead.  73
