K2 Choppy keying

[Bob Whelan]

Hi
Just been playing with a K2 which was sent if for repair of the QRP PA.  
The K2 seems to have a funny keying characteristic. On cw the keying
characteristic seems quite poor at high speeds. I notice too that if one
rotates the receive "irt" knob while sending the keying goes horribly
choppy.  Id be interested in any opinion.
Or are they all like this!?

Just a random through but maybe check the T-R delay in the menus... I think
mine is set to 0.02 (default?) and does well.

How high a speed is high speed?
