I have tried semi-QSK, Mike, but still get the XV144 relay clatter at 
speeds less than about 24wpm.  I can't find in the manual which config 
command I need to change the release delay. Can you point me to it 
please?  I would like to stop the XV144 relays switching between Morse 
elements at 18-20wpm.
