>>>the FTdx101D will blur the dits together...John K7FD<<<
This morning I've tried replicating the issue with my straight key sending dits as fast as I can (~23 wpm), a bug at something over 40 wpm, and by hooking up a paddle as cootie (not a cootie user myself). On the cootie, that fastest burst of dits I can physically produce I estimate to be roughly 37wpm comparing to dits from a keyer set to that speed. I get no blurring listing to the side tone or listening on another rig while transmitting with the MP. I know you've also complained about how your side tone sounds. Mine does not sound like a pure sign wave, but sounds very similar to actual signals heard over the air. Of course actual signals are not pure sign tones, either at their origin or coming out of the RX. (phase noise, non-linearities, and all that...) FWIW: I basically only operate CW, mainly paddles and keyer, and sometimes a straight key. I'm very hesitant to inflict my bug fist on anyone.

If manually sent CW is over 22 wpm…and the spacing is close enough…the FTdx101D will blur the dits together. The letter ‘H’ turns into a long dash. No other radio I have here (thirteen) does this. I recorded spectrum scope videos on a separate receiver and sent them to Yaesu. Their response was ‘use a paddle and don’t bother us.’ But I’m over it; I just use my IC-7610 or RGO One when I use my cootie :) John K7FD > On Jun 9, 2021, at 8:02 AM, Louandzip via Elecraft <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> > wrote: > > >>>>> rig will not key properly with a sideswiper key.
