That's kinda strange. I never really noticed key clicks much on 40m except
on rare occasions. But I'm quickly finding a very different story on
20m...seems like about 80% of the CW signals on 20m are accompanied with
clicks. Most descriptions of their rigs are the top two foreign brands.

I  normally run my Orion with a rise time of 8ms at speeds below 40 wpm and
have asked numerous times for a check for clicks, both with and without the
amp running and have gotten no click reports yet. However if I run over 40
wpm, I have to drop the rise time down to 3ms, which does create so clicks.
