Hello Lowell and others.

Since I am considering the ts2000 as well as Icom equipment, I would like
very much to know something about the high-speed, continuous break-in
features of the Kenwood transceiver. First, is moving from receive to
transmit and back when in cw continuous break-in mode accomplished by means
of relays or is it solid state switching as one would hope? Second, if solid
state, is recovery time of the receiver sufficiently fast to allow hearing
received signals between dots and dashes within one character, i.e. p, l,
comma, numbers etc. You may not know these things if you have not handled
the transceiver in situations like these. While I would like to buy the best
transceiver I can find, it must have top flight cw capabilities for me.

Thanks Lowell, and to you others who have to put up with all my questions.

Regards,

Jerry, v e 3 q s o
