[TenTec] Corsair II & Titan 425

Hi folks,

Thanks for the numerous replies!

I've managed to get things working by using a different keyer. I was 
using a homebrew keyer I made a long time ago based on the Curtis 
8044 chip. It worked with my old TS-820S, a TR-7 ,Triton, Corsair II 
& Omni V with no problem 

It does trigger the Titan 425's relay but that does not trigger the 
Corsair... 

Last night I tried using a retired Ham Keyer I gave my Dad back when 
I was a Novice in the late 70's so he would stop using his bug which 
for me was hard to copy the way he used it (Gave him a Bencher paddle 
back then too). The Ham Keyer also uses the 8044 but a different 
circuit I guess for the Ham keyer does the job perfectly. 

Has to be something in the output of my homebrew keyer that doesn't 
integrate with the 425. Works great now though, Worked a few new on 
80M last night and it was flawless.

Thank you all for your kind suggestions and 

Happy New Year!
