[TenTec] ORION QRQ tests

[Martin Ewing]

Yes, except the QSK Delay adjustment seems to work like "VOX Hang". At 
100% setting, it holds Tx mode for maybe 0.5 second. That's what I'd 
call semi-breakin. It would be interesting to check QRQ in that mode. I 
don't expect much difference, since -- on my rig, at least -- QSK stops 
working at about 20 wpm for dit-to-dit T/R switching. (Internal keyer) 
T/R switching between words seems useful to above 40 wpm. That's good 
enough for me, but it's not "pure" QSK.

73, Martin
