[Elecraft] Keyer

Mon Feb 11 08:56:12 2002

A couple weeks ago I built a Jackson Harbor Press WB9KZY PK-3 keyer kit that
I'd gotten from Morse Express.  There are only a few parts, so build time is
quick.  The keyer has two 50+ character memories plus call sign memory, and
gives you the option of changing speeds either using the knob or via the
functions controlled by the single button/paddles on your key.  The PCB for
the keyer is so small, it should be pretty easy to build it into another
project.  The entire thing - keyer kit, hardware pack (pot w/ knob, piezo,
jacks for key & output, 9v battery lead) and small plastic box to house it -
was about $30 dollars or so.

I put a few pictures of the project on my web site (not very good, & I
didn't get the picture of it completed in the housing up there yet  :-) ).
Here's the link direct to my projects page:
http://www.qsl.net/n9ik/projects.htm.  If you click on the "Completed
Projects" link just under the banner at the top, it will take you directly
to the PK-3 portion of the page.

Here's a link directly to Morse Express' page w/ the keyer:
