The Keyall kit
August 8, 2007 - back in stock

[Keyall circuit board picture - click for larger view of board ] The Keyall kit allows the owner of a keyer with a low voltage positive (NPN or n-channel MOSFET) keying transistor to drive the vacuum tube transmitters and transceivers of yesteryear. This unit will key negative voltage rigs (grid block keying) or positive voltage rigs (cathode keyed tube transmitters and conventional +13.8V powered solid state rigs). The output transistors and capacitor are rated at 500 V and 2.5 A (2500 mA).

The Keyall kit is a replacement for the previous Grid Block keying adapter kit.

Note that the Keyall kit has been used for high power external amplifier keying by Gary, KD9SV.
