Re: [Elecraft] K2 internal keyer problem

2010-08-08 Thread g3ymc
I have seen this on occasion with my K2. Occasionally I get a very long DAH when I key as if I have mis-keyed. Tap the DIT paddle and all is well again. I only run 5W so I don't think it is RF, I suspect a bug in the firmware. But so infrequent not to worry about. 73 Dave G3YMC K2 #2498

Re: [Elecraft] Using /QRP in CW contests

2010-05-13 Thread g3ymc
In fact in many countries of the world the suffix /QRP is not allowed or is a grey area in their licences. I operate QRP but will NEVER send G3YMC/QRP. If a station calls me with /QRP I might make a note in my logbook that they are QRP but will omit the suffix from the callsign I put in the log
