Topband: Loud clicks

I will agree that there was a significant increase in key clicks and other 
spurious noises in recent contests even with a few who were quote" running low 
power". There have been many fine suggestions in how to fix and verify proper 
operation.

To those who may not technically inclined, I might suggest the K1EL Winkey 
USB, which has two optically coupled outputs with separate PTT lines for 
linear amps or Rx muting etc. Great for SO2R operation, works with many of the 
popular contest programs. It is also fully programmable with adjustable hang 
time and delay. I might add it is superb for remote operation in that all 
characters are fully buffered.

I'm not affiliated with any of the K1EA products.....
