Unless you have a malfunction, your MP is clean, check the Radcom and QST
reviews. Either way you cannot, unfortunately, alter the keying
characteristics of the MP( et al) the way you used to be able to do. This
would be a much better function than some of the silly bells and whistles
that come as standard.

There is little doubt that the problem is one of overdriven amplifiers not
transceivers ( horrible overgeneralisation I realise)
