[Elecraft] Send a simple tone

[Don Wilhelm]

Dennis,

One can just hit TUNE, but the power output MAY be controlled by the 
menu TUN PWR menu setting.
I would suggest that Don wire up a switch.  A SPST switch and a 1/4 inch 
plug plus some wire are all that is needed.  Wire one side of the switch 
to the tip of the phone plug, and the other side to the sleeve.  Plug it 
into the KEY jack and close the switch.

73,
Don W3FPR
