[TenTec] Omni VII meter.

[k8vf_mark at centurytel.net]

Two questions on the "s" meter / "swr" meter.

1) does the receive "s" meter on the omni VII seem to sample in a mode that 
is not "real time" on all omni VII?   It works, just seems to be behind a 
bit. Ver. 1.011

2) when using SWR for TX meter in SSB,  if I key the mic and DO NOT talk, 
the swr climbs up to 9.9:1 and stays there. As soon as I talk, it drops to 
the appropriate level.  Is this intentional, to advise that the mic is 
keyed?  or is it a function of the firmware?

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot for the great group.
