I just recently acquired a Tokyo Hy-Power HL45B for use with my Flex-1500. I also have an interface cable to allow me to key the amp from the Flexwire I/O connector on the rear of the rig.
>From what I have read, Tokyo Hy-Power recommends using a TX Out Delay of 10MS >after keying the Amplifier and before applying RF. https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FlexRadio/conversations/messages/10435 This shouldn’t be an issue on SSB but if I am operating CW, according to my rough calculations the on-time for a DIT will be <10ms in duration for code speeds in the range of 20 to 30WPM so I think that this means that I will be losing the first DIT on any CW transmission. Has anyone noticed this issue using the HL45B with a Flex-1500 on CW ? I think that my WINkeyer USB may be able to compensate for this but a good question to ask is does the Flex-1500 internal keyer take this into account when Antenna>FlexWire PTT Out Enabled [ON], Delay [10ms] is set, and perhaps compensate for it .. or am I asking for too much ?
