John, What keying speed were you using?
Key "weighting" changes the ratio between a dot and an intervening space. It is not likely that you will notice a difference at speeds below 25 or 30 WPM. Below those speeds, I suggest leaving the ratio at 1.00. If you are doing higher speeds, you might want to increase the weighting a bit if your keying sounds "light" - I know this is a perception issue, so there are no real answers to what is right. A lot of the answer depends on the particular operator's experience and how he likes to listen to CW at higher speeds. 73, Don W3FPR On 4/10/2011 8:56 PM, John Cooper wrote: > On the K2 menu you can vary the key weight from .090-1.40 (90-140%) according > to the manual.
