Hi Bob and all others,
I have the impression that several different problems related to
speed jumps are mixed up in this task. Separating the different
problems may be hard (also when debugging).

Even though this task is still in status "unconfirmed" and has never
been mentioned in the release.txt I consider it as being completed.
Sure I can not say if the problem we are facing at the moment is
related to the same root cause or not.
I can also confirm the sporadic speed changes, as far as I can
remember only towards very high speed, and always jumping back to the
correct speed after the programmed messages ends. And yes this is
very likely related to the ++ and -- commands. Up to now I was unable
to reproduce it.
Bob you mentioned to always use a speedpot range of 20WPM to 60WPM.
Maybe this is part of the problem. I always use the Microham default
values 15WPM/40WPM, but of course with synchronized speed, controlled
only by WT. Task #235 (also unconfirmed) is also related to these
settings. Unfortunately I do not have my MKII available at the moment
to retest.
