AXDELAY n (n = 0 - 255)
default 0
The value of “n” is the number of 10 millisecond intervals to wait, in addition to
TXDELAY, after keying the transmitter before data is sent. This delay can be
helpful when operating packet through a standard “voice” repeater, or when us-
ing an external linear amplifier which requires extra key-up time. Repeaters using
slow mechanical relays, split-sites, or both require some amount of time to get
RF on the air.

AXHANG n (n = 0 - 255)
default 0
Each increment specifies 10 millisecond intervals. This value may be used to im-
prove channel utilization when audio repeaters with a hang time greater than 10
msec are used. If the repeater squelch tail is long, it is not necessary to wait for
AXDELAY after keying the transmitter if the repeater is still transmitting. If the
TNC has heard a packet within the AXHANG period, it will not add AXDELAY
to the key-up time.
