Hi Bill!  Here are the settings I typically use.  Seems to work FB for my
taste:

PTT ENABLE = TRUE
PADDLE PTT HOLD COUNT = 6
PTT TURN ON DELAY = 15

This is yet another way-cool differentiator between TR Log and those other
programs.  I can't imagine ever going back to old-fashioned break-in (semi
or full).  It's just SO much nicer this way!
