Re: More questions
No, no other mods. The only thing that might make a difference is that I'm using 75ms delay instead of 50ms. I found that for my rig 50ms is just too short to completeley eliminate the burst. (BTW

Re: More questions
Thanks Allard.? I did try using the PTT sense but still got a very short burst of carrier visible on the scope connected at the antenna output.? Maybe you have some other pop reduction mods in place

Re: More questions
Since abandoning a software hack, I've attempted ferreting out a hardware hack to get rid of the PTT burst, but. I've only been able to cut it back, However; in so doing, I have measured the burst and
