have never needed this crutch to go between transmit and receive on CW.  If
you want semi-breakin on a tentec radio, you just adjust a delay that really
just mutes the receiver a little longer so you don't hear anything between
the dits and dahs. <<

That ain't no "crutch". It is a REQUIREMENT for serious contester. Adjusting 
the delay means repeats on missing first characters in the callsigns. We NEED 
PTT control for precise control and timing on CW by contesting programs!!! We 
do not need BK. If the radio is meant for serious contesters then it better 
satisfy their requirements rather than "likes" of TT cult fanatics.
