I'm running WSJT-X v2.5.0.  Earlier versions did have a delay on transmit issue.   For WSJT-X RADIO settings, I use MODE as Data/Pkt and for SPLIT I use Fake It.   The radio operates is in DATA A mode.    I do run CAT control and not VOX for PTT.  Running the latest updated version of Windows 10 Pro, I find little to no delay in transmit start-up.

As to Apple users, our church installed an Apple  based video system.   After many issues, failures and embarrassments, I told the pastor; "As I recall, Adam and Eve had an issue with an apple.  There is a bite out of the logo to prove it".   Perhaps there is a lesson to be learned.

Update the software to the latest. That was a known bug in earlier
versions. I had the same problem with my K3.

Hi Folks,

Wondering if someone on the list might be able to solve this one. I?m using a 
K3 and while CW is my main passion, I do dabble in FT8 occasionally. I?ve 
noticed that the radio does not start transmitting right at the start of the 15 
second FT8 cycle. It will start anywhere from 2 - 5 seconds into the cycle. I 
can?t help but think that is not a good thing and could be the cause of an 
occasional missed QSO. I DO make QSOs but this kinda bothers me. The audio 
signals are delayed this amount of time, as is the red TX light coming on - I 
am using VOX . Same thing happens when I press the TUNE button - it takes 
anywhere from 2-5 seconds for the rig to go into transmit mode.

I really doubt it is due to computer overload, as the only applications running 
are WSJT-X, MacLoggerDX (my logging program), and JT-Bridge  - all other 
applications have been ended. Since this happens when I press TUNE, that pretty 
much eliminates JT-Bridge and MacLoggerDX as the cause. Some hardware and 
software specifics:

Mac mini, 32 GB RAM, 3GHz processor, 6 cores, Intel Core i5.
Mac OS Big Sur 11.5
WSJT-X 2.4.0
Audio Interface: Tascam US-125M external USB device
Values in the DT column are consistently about 0.1 - 0.4

Wasn?t sure if I should post this here or on the WSJT-X list, but I thought I?d 
start here. Any ideas?
