This isn't a bug, it's the way it was implemented. Originally, whenever in cw, hitting the key would cause the rig to transmit, either in VOX or PTT mode. A change was made so that the rig would not transmit unless it was in VOX or the PTT was engaged. In PTT mode, the rig still keys but doesn't output any RF; different from the way most all other rigs behave but it works. Hopefully, once Wayne gets peoples' Duckies included, they go back and set it so unless in VOX mode the rig doesn't even key when the paddles are closed.
