Hi All

Need a little help please, thanks to a fellow Ham at my remote station we installed a 2nd RR for me today with a Kenwood V71 dual bander.    I have on my original RR used the IO port to switch a coax relay which works great but I am having issues getting the I/O to work to switch another relay I am trying to use.   I have the I/O ports set as Out0 and using OUT Mode as I/O and IN0 on the Control to use with a switch, but each time I make the connection between pin 4 and ground I get a loud beeping coming from the speakers.   Can't see what I am doing wrong that the switch wouldn't work as I have copied it from my first RR setup which is working great.

Hope someone can please help

Thank you

Stuart

You have activated keyer, then IN0 is used for straight key, thats why you get the CW sidetone
