Thanks Tony,

I had already changed the pacing and eoc  to lower values, I have now
changed them to your suggested values and it may be a little quicker
now, but there is STILL a BIG BIG  difference in speed between
pressing Alt R and QSY'ing by clicking on a DX Spot.

I also have a TS2000 and that does not exhibit the same problem, even
without changing the Radios.ini there is not any noticeable difference
between the 2 QSY'ing methods. With the TS950 the difference is very
noticeable!.

I realise that it will never be as quick as the TS2000 due to the
relatively low bps rate of the TS950 (4800bps) but it has me beat why
is SO FAST when pressing Alt R, its almost instant!.
