 What is considered a high performance number for CTCSS/PL ackquisition time?
 According to what I see posted on the web (which may or may not be real) The 
 Comspec TS-32 is 250msec, and the TS-64 is 150msec.  The actual decode time
 should get worse as you go lower in frequency, so what would you think are 
 high performance numbers for at say, 67 hz?

Those numbers are pretty normal, and the frequency of the tone normally 
has no noticable effect on decode time, with modern decoders. I haven't 
seen a variation in decode time related to freq decoded since the days 
of the big old copper motorola reeds. Even then it was usually more a 
problem with bad reeds or noise in the transmitter or receiver signal.
