I have had the amp for years and just now reread the manual.  It says you
should set up the amp for QSK for CW and VOX for SSB. I did not have it set
up for QSK and I think it may have been "hot keying" on CW.  So I guess this
falls into the "operator error" category...  If that's true, I wonder why it
wouldn't be hot keying on SSB?
