[App_rpt-users] Speaking of CW IDs

[Mike/W5JR]

This sounds like an area that has had little or no experimentation thus far. It will go on my "someday" list.

And why would I want faster than 20 wpm you ask, my HUB nodes are only send "ID" to web transceivers, and I would like them faster. I have observed that at 20 wpm, there is a bit of jitter and faster may not be possible. (An ID I built years ago had a limit on how fast it could go before the code elements were overrun by timing)
