[TenTec] OMNI VI Keyer Speed Adjustment, TX OUT, TXEN

[Reed Christiansen <reed@wi9p.com>]

I am wanting to be able to adjust the OMNI VI keyer speed while listening to 
the sidetone, without actually transmitting.  This would be useful to match the 
speed of another operator while s/he is still transmitting.

One way would be to replace the back panel TX OUT/TXEN jumper with a foot 
switch.  I've confirmed that if this line is opened, the sidetone still 
operates when the dot or dash paddles are operated, without transmitting a 
signal.

Is there a more straightforward manner of doing this that I might be missing?  
Thanks for any suggestions you might be able to provide.
