[arm-allstar] CW timing question

[Doug Crompton]

While you can use CWID there is no requirement that you do so. You can use voice ID and turn off CWID if you like. With the new 1.02 code in beta mode the new  telemduckdb command can be used to reduce the levels on talkover. Most of the time if people avoid quick keying there would be no talk over.
Voice ID especially on a repeater is so much more friendly. Us old timers assume everyone can read CW. So many newcomers cannot.

See the 1.02 readme link right after the 1.02 image link at hamvoip.org.
