I've been doing a little digital work with my 817.  On psk I set for 5 watts but run up the level via audio control to about 2.5w output.  Recently doing some jt65 wit 817 set at 2.5 and volume up so it actually runs 2.5.

So far so good :-)

Hope this helps.

Speaking of which, how many have experience running digital modes with the 817?  Where do you usually keep your power out?  I know a lot of the 817's have had final transistors go in the past, and would *like* to avoid that!

Hello Dennis
Welcome to the 4S QRP group.
I am sure we have worked many times down through the years, I have ran the CW circuit of Fists, SKCC and the like, as I am sure most of us here have. There is one thing for sure, this is by FAR  the friendliest and helpful group you will ever join up with!!
Most us us are active builders, some operate more than others, but most of all we all love QRP and have a lot of fun doing it!

Hello Dennis

I see that we have QSO'd a couple times over the past 8 years (man, time sure flies).

You did get a 4SQRP number when you joined this group - just no one probably told you what it was. At least that was my case.

It will show up here: http://www.4sqrp.com/w25.php at some point I think (it is not there at this moment).

Hope to hear you on the air - 7030+/- or somewhere.

Hey.. the band is open.. usable.. we had checkins from AZ-PA-M)-GA-CA-WA...
all we needed was a FL to go corner to corner across the country.. but we near did it.
And we had one or more listening too.. there are folks that just listen.. to get better too.
I must mention that this is the first outing for my Profii II proto that Mr Shurr was making
when he became a SK. Just finished the base, and it is ready to go. Now all I need is a spell checker
for my fingers.

Thank you all for checking in... the 80F from Ca.. was nice... 32 in Pa, and many stations reporting snow
on the ground now.

AF9W - KA2QPG - KA4RUR - KG0YR - W3HZZ - KE6OIO - AD7BP
all made it in.. sorry if I missed anyone,

and I have another thought to ask about.. for next Tues... since the holidays are over... about to begin.. or somewhere in the middle...
what is your fav recipe? What is your fav dish to eat?
Second.. and now you know the rest of the story .... can you write it down on a QSL for me? or email it to me please?
Tell me what it is on Tuesday.. Thursday.. and if you have more than one.. that's fine too.

mmm mmm good... I can tell already. Yes.. I will share.. .... I'm thinking a RMR Net Cookbook... sprinkled with recipes.. and
qrp stories... like the one that could be told about operating from St. Simons Island.... with 5w and a dipole. ...
or ??

See you next week...

Have a great day,
