[Central-Electronics] 20A 80M CW

[David Griffin]

I've never gotten any complaints.  80 cw is rather informal, of course, but
I've never noticed any appreciable drifting after a 10 minute warm up.  I
connected the key to the back terminals such that the relay is not
constantly chattering.   When everything is in adjustment, I can get
possibly 17 watts out, which was plenty before the flux dipped.

the CW heads out there get upset if you drift a little bit? How's the
key-clicks?
