Re: [TenTec] Argo V and 6&2 Question

[Robert & Linda McGraw K4TAX <RMcGraw@Blomand.Net>]

My experience with the RF keying method is sometimes it works and sometimes 
it doesn't.  When it doesn't it will take out the FET in the preamp. 
Therefore, I have resorted to hard DC keying of the amp from the exciter. 
No problems since adopting this approach.
