[Elecraft] SSB output overshoot

[Don Wilhelm]

Geoff,

Your question is a lot easier than the control loop question.
The series resistor R66 on the RF board will limit the response of the basic
detector in the base K2 when the other devices are installed - consider that
the KPA100 (and other options that provide the VRFDET signal) use an op amp
output with no series resistor - all options other than the KAT2 use a
tri-state device so it can be enabled or disabled under control of the
microprocessor(s).

This is a bussing technique as opposed to simply connecting several outputs
together.
