I believe the bypass circuit was added to the DSP-9+ because so many
folks had problems when their DSP-9 was running on very narrow bandpass,
and the CW monitor tone was outside that bandpass. Hence the need to
open it up (or bypass it) on transmit to hear your own monitor tone. The
DSP-9's had practically unnoticeable time delay in its path.
By the way, The JPS units with NIR actually had significant delay due to
the "NIR" design. The NIR-12 had 2 types of noise reduction, one I'd
call "frequency" based, and one I'd call "time" based. The time based
one introduced the delay, and I rarely found it useful. To my ear, the
'frequency based' noise reduction algorithm was significantly better
sounding than the Timewave's. FWIW.
