I had the same problem when I went from my Omni VI Plus to my new at the
time, Omni VII. Would not unkey. Sent the Omni VII back to Ten Tec, Paul
Clinton advised me to add a jumper across D2 on the QSK board. That was
October 2014. Did as instructed and no problems since. I had to remove
attached drawings from previous e- mail as file was too big. Hope this
helps.  Jim K7IKN
