At very high code speeds the SWR and power bargraphs will stay on 
between code elements. This becomes necessary above a certain WPM rate 
because LCDs have a finite switching time, and we want to avoid 
flicker, which could lead to misleading bargraph readings. The receiver 
will still recover between code elements if you're using full QSK.

I hadn't thought about making this user-programmable, but that's 
possible.
