W0FLS:
Key clicks are probably the single worst problem we have with new
radios.

My TS-830 seems to have a good keying waveform, but the new, (expensive)
FT-847 does not ... it is quite square, and while I haven't yet
determined what it sounds like from a moderate distance, my guess is
"square is not cool."  It has a million "features," most of which I have
yet to fully comprehend, but then, how long has knowledge of proper
keying waveshapes been around?
