Foot "switch-bounce" error on SSB transmit.

While operating SSB I have experienced my cheap footswitch apparently either not making full closure or the switch contacts "bouncing" and the transmitter goes into limbo... neither receiving or transmitting until I take my foot off the switch. Then it goes to RX. If I press the switch again, it is OK. Odd. No big problem. But I made whole transmission that sent nothing and everyone wondered where I went.... Is there a contact bounce debugger on the PTT line? Or just on the CW keyer inputs? Ken - NM9P 6500, Flex Knob, SSDR 13.10, Windows 8

    Ken, There isn't a debounce setting for the PTT, but we have this behavior listed in the developer's bug tracker for additional investigation. Thanks for the report.
