I have seen that with both PTT and VOX in Ham and commercial operations. The VOX issue is well known. In PTT some operators develop the habit of starting to speak before fully depressing the PTT switch. I've watched operators do that repeatedly without realizing it even after they were aware that they tended to do that.

OT Sorry for the thread drift, but, has there ever been an investigation into response time of hitting the PTT and beginning to speak? Occasionally I hear the first syllable being lost and I've wondered if this is due to time delays in the equipment or the user, or both. Brings back memories of bucket-brigade delay-lines. 73 David G3UNA ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
