Topband: W8JI FT1000MP MKV Click Modification

I put some "before and after" keying waveform images for the 
W8JI FT-1000MP MKV key-click mod. Keying waveforms for both 
the normal "mid-word" rising edge, and the "hard-edge" leading
character are shown. The radio still clicks pretty bad, but only
on the leading characters that follow a word-space (or longer
pause. Mid-word characters don't cause clicks with the mod
in place.

Any help with curing this leading character problem would be 
appreciated. 

Thanks and 73,

Mike, W4EF................................. 

P.S. I've checked Tom's instructions several times to make sure 
that I followed them correctly. I couldn't find any discrepancies 
between what I did to the radio and what he said to do in the 
instructions.
