A possible firmware fix for the LPF relay delay would be to add a pipeline delay
to all CW code elements, not just the starting edge of the transmission.
The sidetone could happen immediately, so the operator would not notice a difference.

Would be interesting to measure how long it takes the LPF relays to turn on
after TX_RX is driven true.? There are two levels of relays involved there,
first the T/R relay has to supply power to the TX rail.? Maybe 20ms total?
And need additional delay to add a margin of safety.
So getting iffy.
