[hpsdr] CW break-in ?

[Joe Martin]

The option you describe originally existed with versions of HPSDR PowerSDR when the CW was being generated in the PC and worked exactly as you describe.  With implementation of FPGA-generated CW (to reduce latency) that switching behavior changed.  

In the current protocol there is no control bit provided specifically to enable/disable break-in CW operations.  However, it may be possible for the PC software program to implement such behavior using the existing control bits (e.g., internal/external CW generation bit and disabling/enabling PTT in the software program, etc) but that behavior does not appear to be implemented in the current version of HPSDR PowerSDR as de-selecting the Break-In check box on the front panel of HPSDR PowerSDR has no effect on the behavior presently (the break-in feature is always active regardless of whether the check box is checked or not) when FPGA-generated CW is being used.  

This is an issue that Doug W5WC might wish to try to address in a subsequent release of HPSDR PowerSDR using control bits under the present protocol or Phil may wish to consider adding a control bit to the current protocol document to explicitly enable/disable break-in CW ops in the firmware/software and the software/firmware modified accordingly to implement it.
