- WB6FZH has enjoyed C-21 since 1990, wanted one longer...
The C-21 is often keyed with TenTec 645 keyer(paddles built-in).
It is often used with second receiver to make sure weak signals
are not missed. It is usually run at the 4.5watt(measured) output
level. But if qrp is not making it...QRO at 20 watts is used! It is
the radio I use the most!-72
