Hoi Al,
sorry for the late reply.
It looks like PTT isn't working at all (* anyone on the list that can
confirm this? *). When I programmed it, I did not have a setup available
that uses PTT. With my kenwood TS-870S I don't need it.
I looks like I need to have another look at the PTT code. Currently I am
a little hooked up on other projects, so I can't make any short-term
promises, sorry.
Regards.
