KXPA100: PA Key Delay

Kurt Pawlikowski
Hi!

     I'm getting ready for Field Day. I use a circular polarized antenna
and a device to switch polarization between transmit and receive. When
sending code, the results in the relays changing with every dit and
dah... I was wondering if there is an adjustment to increase the
"release" time for this output so it would not switch back to the
receive state immediately. I was contemplating a small circuit to
accomplish this, but thought there might be a built-in solution. Any
thoughts? Thanks!
