It's more than a little lag <G> - particularly on those occasions the lower level is nearly 3 dB low to start. I'm looking forward to the next one. Perhaps the update rate should be adaptive - fast for the
first couple seconds of a transmission and then slowing down after the
power has had a chance to stabilize ...

Hi Joe,

I reduced the power ramp-up rate in FSK-D in conjunction with other changes. 
I'll improve this in the next beta release. Meanwhile it lags a little in this 
mode, which is hopefully just a minor inconvenience.

Sorry, Wayne.  It's not fixed.  Although the power adjusts now it still
comes up more than 1 dB low (65 to 75 Watts for 110W commanded) and
takes more than five seconds to reach set output.   These tests in
FSK_D.  For comparison, in CW power output comes up at more than 90%
of the commanded level and reaches full output in 1 second or less.

I've performed wattmeter and power calibration - they have little
if any impact on the issue.

Hi all,

It appears that I've fixed the reported bug in FSK-D mode (RTTY) where power 
could not be increased while transmitting. I know some of you are in the middle 
of an RTTY contest as we speak, and if you'd like to try the new firmware, 
please email me directly.
