Up and Running
« on: 2010-12-20, 23:05:06 »
Hi All:

I want to thank Mikael and those who assisted me with getting up and running.
Want to thank you for your patients as well.
Now that I'm up and running, I to am getting that extra . and - in my CW.
I've got my rig configured for straight key operation, as per the instructions in my owners manual (Yaesu FT-450) but I don't think that's responsible.
In the Control RRC Keyer Settings, I have the LF and Key delays set to my ping time of 130MS. 
My weight is 30. Other than that, I don't know what else to change.
Could it be I'm getting an echo back from the rig?
I shouldn't be because my rig's keyre is set to off which you do for straight key.

TNX & 73:

Hi

Glad to hear you are on the air. Switch of the CW sidetone in the transceiver or increase the lf delay if the extra dit are comming from the radio.
