I purposefully avoided naming the radios that I noticed had the clicks.  I think people should discuss that off line.  I can only say I agree with your comments, Jim.  This problem was mentioned again by Rob Sherwood in a recent webinar, and it clearly needs attention by the manufacturers.  I also noticed extreme clicks years ago with early Flex models, but they quickly cleared that up.  Even setting the default to 6ms or more by the manufacturers would be a big help, since it seems most people don't change that setting.   Hot switching with older amps with slow relays can be a major click problem, too.  Jim
