The QRQ option works in semi-QSK mode as well. It allows you (or some machine!) to send clean code at higher speeds. I've noticed that without the QRQ option -- even in semi-QSK mode -- when the speed gets above about 35 wpm it starts to have timing issues. After about 45, it is really bad. At slower speeds, although it is acceptable, you can notice the difference. I assigned the QRQ menu item to one of the PFK's on my K3. It is too much of a hassle to go to the menu! I don't use RIT that much, but SPLIT is a necessity for dx pileups. I know there is a way to operate split with the subreceiver, using VFO B to listen, but I haven't been able to get used to it. -- Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA http://www.qsl.net/k2vco/ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
