Two issues: 1. I expanded prosigns after inserting the +++ --- speed control statements. Whoops. Fixed that. 2. I had an echo test after host open. Not sure why I did that, other than I must have been in a hurry. Haven't changed that yet, but commenting it out in the code helped Joop during some early troubleshooting, so I may make that change after reviewing the winkeyer documentation. This is likely keyer implementation specific. (I've been testing with an hamcrafters winkeyer USB, but should dig out my old Arduino K3NG implementation.)
I suspect between the two, Joop's problem should be fixed. Will continue to follow up per his test report. I especially need to do something about #2 above. Besides +++ --- and a complete cwdaemon compatible prosign implementation, I added tune capability as well to pywinkeyerdaemon, so ALT-T works from tlf now. Looks like tlf does a 6 second timeout for tune, cwdaemon supports 0 to 10 seconds, and winkeyer 0 to 99. I guess how long is too long varies wildly depending on the situation! :-O :-) ALT-T would have been great to have yesterday when I was dealing with a fussy autotuner.
