I think the fact that it's user selectable is important and I agree it should
be kept because the turnaround time to respond to an inbound message is very
short (this is especially noticeable for those of us that do 99% of our
operating remotely where internet connections may prevent successful replies in
such a short amount of time). Purists can certainly choose to not enable the
feature but I think it's a nice feature. I also agree with disabling the TX
once the user hits the "73" in the cycle - user intervention is still required
which is still important in my opinion.
My 2 cents. :)
73,
