The 940 and the TS-440S use a similar relay for keying the amp Relay 
Control line on Tx.  The article on circuit improvements for the 440 on 
my Web site shows how to replace the slow relay with a 300v npn 
transistor switch.  We sell a parts kit for 50 cents.

How does the 86 T/R switch the antenna?
