This was a suggestion that I had made
several months ago. I believe I had mentioned it
to Lyle, KK7P...  

As I recall, the response was that it seemed a reasonable
request and that it would be forwarded for consideration
to the firmware development team.

Glad to see there are others who feel it would be a
welcome addition to the feature set. I think that
a configurable countdown timer (ability to set it for
any particular interval as here in the US it is 10 minutes
but elsewhere in the world it may differ. Canada, I
believe, is 30 minutes) would be a great idea.

Or some of the more serious stuff like:

The NOTCH button.
Instead of cycling Autonotch, manual, off
Make it -Tap NOTCH and AutoNOTCH comes on.
Tap it again and AutoNOTCH goes off.
Or
HOLD NOTCH and it goes to MANUAL NOTCH and you
can adjust the notch frequency.
Tap it and it goes off.

or

The ability to use WIDTH while you are transmitting.
And have the buttons on the right side work while transmitting,
and not screw up the CW being sent

or

Have both RX and TX audio go out the LINE OUT at a fixed level,
not at the AF Gain level.

or

PTT should over ride any CW delay settings when not in QSK.
No delay at the end of a memory from the PC (CQ, Exchange, etc) when using PTT control.
But you would want a CW delay when sending from the paddle/keyer

Those would be some of my thoughts.
