Hopefully if implemented it is an option. If not using QSK it is fine. But if using QSK I want to hear between elements, even if the other station is weak while I am sending so that I don't need to keep sending if the other station starts transmitting.

Keith, This is an interesting idea, and I've added it to the firmware wish-list. Thanks. In the interim you might try a non-zero value of CW semi-QSK delay, assuming you don't need full break-in.
