Hello Elecrafters,
I like to transmit (beacon mode) a multitone signal from a program that
has no PTT output. Also the level is only 1 watt max, so the vox is not
working because of the low audio input level.
My question, is there a problem if I set the PTT to always on (with the
screw from the paddles ;-)) and transmit several hours at max. 1 watt PEP?
I tried it this afternoon for 2 hours and saw not any problem, except the
K2 was slightly warm over this 2 hours. I will only be sure that there is
no problem with overheating the finals.
