Wayne/Don,
Maybe another solution could be to optionally (menu/config?) power up
in TX-inhibit (Test mode). Tx-inhibit could then be reset by hitting the
key/paddle, mic PTT or the TEST button.

Don,
By "a few seconds" I meant that it would have to detect the condition in
that window, on power-up. But if it did detect key-down in this window,
it would remain in the TX-inhibit condition for as long as the key-down
persisted.

Wayne,
Given the situation, reasons, and consequences, I believe something
like what you suggested would be the best solution. If you can extend
the time beyond 'the first couple of seconds' (enough time to change
the menu or power down), that would be helpful IMHO.

Dave,
I wanted to run a possible solution past you.
I could prevent the rig from being keyed (by any method) during the
first couple of seconds that it's powered up. Instead, it could
detect this case, and display a repeating message (something like:
"KEYLINE IS ACTIVE") until you either remove the source of the keying
or turn power off.
Thoughts on this?
