Hi Art,

I use an Orion II and a Delta II with a Centurion. I'd recommend that mod, which can be done within less than 5 minutes.
Happy holidays!

I purchased a Centurion that was being used with an Orion. The previous owner had made the mod recommended by Ten-Tec:
"Note for older 422 Centurion amp owners: Using an older Centurion with the newest 
Ten-Tec HF transceivers - Pegasus, Jupiter, and Orion - may require a small modification 
to the QSK board in older Centurion amps for proper QSK CW keying. Short diode D2 (red 
diode, 1N4148, next to Q1) with a jumper wire. The current 422B does not require this 
modification."

I have an Omni VI.  Should I undo that modification, or is it benign?  Could it 
be the cause of the buzzing I detect at the relay?

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Art, KØRO
