[ct-user] new so2r behavior in 9.90.007

What is the purpose of the new behavior when keying by hand in 9.90.007
that is causing about a 1 second delay and then forcing wx0b to switch
to the other radio.  It used to be when keying by the function keys that
wx0b switched immediately to the other radio for listening (when you did
this the radio a/b light on the box lit to show which one was
transmitting), but when you sent by hand the light didn't light and the
rx stayed on the the radio so you could listen to your sending.  In
9.90.007 now sending by hand turns on the a/b light and after a second
or so delay the rx switches to the other radio so you can't hear your
sending... did handling of ptt or something else change to break this?
Is there any command to get it back the way it was?  Note, for you fast
senders you may not notice this as it only seems to happen when sending
slowly by hand, i.e. at 20wpm you only hear the first 4 dahs of a zero.

There seems to be other timing problems also at low speeds.  Sending a
string of v's at 30wpm seems to be solid, at 20wpm occasionally one of
them starts with a dah, at 12wpm every other v comes out as a k... it
seems to be the same when selecting supercmos, curtisa, or curtisb.
