[HBQRP] PicoKeyer chip feedback?

[Piatt, Darwin]

Ha! If we get 8 inches of snow I'll have to find the little parka Patti
made me for the IC-703. :)
Burrrrrr!

WHAT...???  Aren't you planning on using it for the FYBO contest
Saturday???
You should be out on the back deck with a radio and a thermometer...  I
think you get extra points for wind chill... not sure about snow
depth...

I haven't found anything funky yet but plan to play some more while
snowed
in.

Importance: High

For any of you who got a new PicoKeyer chip at the last meeting...  
have you had a chance to play with it yet?  Any feedback on the new
command
mode and features?

Since then I have made a couple of minor changes.  First, the /P message
pause command will now WAIT for you to send something from the paddles,
then
automatically resume when you stop sending.  This prevents

the message from getting canceled if you happen to wait a bit before
sending
from the paddles.

Second, I changed the /S message command.  You can still use /SU and /SD
to
change the speed by 1 WPM relative to the current speed.  BUT...

you can also now set a specific speed with /S followed by a one- or
two-digit number, like /S30 or /S5 or even /S0 (to resume normal speed
sending).

I'm interested in any feedback, positive or negative.  Especially
negative,
actually.  If something stinks, tell me before I unleash it on

the unsuspecting world.  :)

Thanks & 73,
