Certainly not. I'm not sure whether it is recovery time or latency, but in full break-in mode, you hear nothing between the dits above something like 10 wpm. (Even with AGC off.) With other non-DSP receivers, one can hear between the dits up to at least 30 wpm with fast AGC. Perhaps it's just the price we pay for the power of DSP.
Many years ago, when there were sunspots, I recall hearing multiple echos on 15 meters. I timed them, and the time interval was about 133 ms, just about the time it takes radio waves to circumnavigate the earth. I heard them go around at least twice, and that was receiving off the back of a beam. Talk about long path! That would not have been possible with a DSP receiver.
