Hi all, I have a KX1 that has worked just fine for me for the last 2 years or so. I've been using the KXPD1 paddles without problem.
I wanted to try working on some QRP contacts for the SKCC, so I plugged in my straight key and set the input to "hnd". When I start sending, the rig keys normally for about 20-30 seconds, then stays keyed for a random amount of time, whether the key is closed or not. It will usually stay keyed for between 10 and15 seconds, then unkey. If I close the key again it will do the same. I can get it to stop by unplugging the key or waiting, but it will continue to have this unkeying issue until I turn off the rig. It will then work for 20-30 seconds and start all over again. I've tried a different key with the same result. Any ideas? I'd love to not have to use the big rig for SKCC contacts. Thanks and 73, Sean - VA5LF ______________________________________________________________ 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
