[1000mp] CW click/thump

[John]

My new Mark V Field  has annoyingly loud clicks/thumps in the audio on 
every "break" when sending QSK and after the delay in sending 
semi-break-in. The only way to get rid of these is to turn down the AF 
Gain control, which of course defeats the purpose of QSK.

Previous Mark Vs I've owned had this to a lesser extent, and an FT-920 I 
now own also exhibits the same clicks/thumps, so it's a Yaesu thing. 
Does anyone have a fix? Somewhere the audio is picking up something it 
shouldn't. (I have the linear relay switch on the back set to "off.")

I would love to hear of a solution, because otherwise this is a fine rig 
(see my eHam.net review of 4/30/05).

Masny thanks for reading.
