Steve, et. al. We significantly decreased TR transition times in firmware in order to deliver the major CW timing improvements in 2.0.19 RC1. It sounds like we need to take another look to see if that speed improvement is causing a transition glitch on voice modes. I will meet with the engineering team to discuss a test and resolution methodology.
We will probably want to get a small group of testers to help get to the bottom of the problem without taking up too much reflector bandwidth. If you or others who have good test setups would like to help, please send me a private email.
