G'day,

<snipo>
I am getting reports of a very quick "whoop" on my signal as a result of
this mod.  I can hear it when listeing with an adjacent receiver.  Given a
choice, I would reduce the length of the rise time which the diagram with
the mod shows as ten ms or more.
<snipo>

Are we talking "whoop" as in frequency change here?  That surely couldn't
be caused by the rise time of the CW envelope, sounds more like a synth
settling problem changing from RX to TX frequency.  Has the transition
guard time been reduced by the mod?
