I dusted off my Triton IV for the Field Day weekend and found that although the
QSK is good, it still doesn't beat the Omni Six or
Pegasus in terms of the T/R turnaround time. If I go past ~ 20 WPM or so with
the Triton, I loose the receiver between elements.
Is this normal for the Triton? With the Omni Six (with modifications) and
Pegasus, I get up to well past 40 WPM before things fall
apart.
In all other respects, the Triton is an absolute joy to use (especially with
the N4LQ side-tone mod). The only thing missing on the
Triton is selectable crystal filtering like the Omni C.
