Sorry, not my experience Gary with ANAN-100D.  Lightning fast computer with
low DPC's   Receive and transmit latency each measured ~150msec in ssb and
cw.  Then they moved the cw transmit to the onboard FPGA and eliminated
that, but none of the other functions will be ported to the FPGA.  You
can't use these radios (pc-based dsp) if you need a non-slow turnaround.
It was killing me when I tried using the radio in cw and ssb contests.
