[UK-CONTEST] 80M CC G3SJJ

[Ian Trusson]

Ian,

I used this reference and it worked well:

http://www.k1ttt.net/technote/Inradkeyclickmod2.pdf

No long wire leads, no extra board and no pots, just a capacitor soldered
directly under the RF board and a resistor & capacitor soldered directly
under the IF board.

After the mod on the scope both rise and fall times are nicely rounded over
a few msecs.

Regards,
Ian Trusson, G3RVM
