Info Needed: Accu-Keyer
 

I'm looking for a schematic, or at least hookup information for the
Accu-Keyer. I have a populated board, but no data. Can't seem to find
anything on the net. Little help... ? Thanks.

Mike-

The original article was in QST magazine, written by WB4VVF from the Orlando,
Florida, area. I understand he still lives in the area. According to the QRZ
data base,

If you don't find what you're looking for, you might write Jim directly.

I also have an AccuKeyer, but don't have any idea where the documentation is.
As I recall, the original design was intended to key a vacuum tube transmitter
with grid-block keying. It is supposed to work with the more modern solid
state rigs as well, but sometimes the offset voltage of about 0.7 volts, is too
much. I modified mine by removing the high voltage PNP keying transistor, and
used the NPN transistor of the preceding stage to key my rig.

I don't have any documentation handy, but I'd be willing to look into mine if
you have specific questions.
