Don,
This has been an issue with repeating QTC forever. There is no PTT OFF
as there is when they are normally being transmitted. Sure would be nice
for a fix. I had to turn the audio way up (as the rtty monitor volume on
my FT2000 is way too weak) to hear the diddle so I would know when to
press Escape. If you chain them together (send twice) you do get a CR.
Boy, 10m was a blast.
