have a governor on it to limit the speed maximum to 20 wpm? My
entries greater than 20 make no difference. 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)<br>
