[TenTec] CW weighting

[Lyle Dunlap]

Good point Marinus, I had occasion one time to need Keying Compensation on a 
new digital rig.   Not to be confused with Keying Delay or Weighting,   I 
ended up with the MFJ 495 which is a great keyer.   Many listen to side tone 
and have no idea what they sound like on air.
