[Elecraft] CQ Contest

Well, I'd bet that a rig with bad clicks overdriving an amplifier could generate some pretty wide trash.  Some of what I heard was so bad, though, that I half suspect they had bad timing for the T/R relay in the amplifier ... essentially hot switching the amp.

But even a very simple cathode-keyed vacuum tube rig with minimal click
suppression shouldn't produce anything significant out a 1 kHz or more away
from the carrier.
