[arm-allstar] COR timer -- was: COR question

Hi Guys,

I'm not making promises, but, I'll take a look at adding an adjustable COR 
timer, functioning very much like the current "totime=xxx" for the TX 
timeout.

I know this would be a VERY useful feature!

Jim,

If you have a radio that goes high on signal and you set it to "usb" you do have to be careful that you do not turn off or disconnect the radio. The CM108 has a pullup so it would put Allstar in an RXKEY condition and lockup a channel if you were connected anywhere. So the warning is to never turnoff or disconnect a radio especially in a connected state.
