>From what I have seen, the vacuum-relay QSK systems out there seem to spend
most of their attention on speeding up the relays so that they will be
fully closed before the RF arrives.  Yet it seems to me that equal harm
could be done on break, if RF is still present for any reason.  Am I
missing something?
