Measures (K6???) did a relay speed-up scheme for QSK on an SB220, I don't remember the details but it was something like hitting the relay with higher than usual coil voltage/current and it shortened up the relay pull-in time.

My neighbor, Bob Wolbert, K6XX, has worked for Elecraft for several years. Many years ago, he published a circuit like what you're describing. He credits it to Tony, K1KP.
