[ARC5] ARC5 CW Question

I always thought you put the diode across the coil to short the back emf. (?)

That is correct.  Steve KB4DMF discovered the chirp described in my 
first e-mail after putting together an entire two transmitter/three 
receiver set in its original complete form.  That's not typically how 
hams used/use them, so we had never heard of any anomaly like that 
before.  Ferreting out the reasons behind the chirp and fixing it was an 
interesting exercise.
