    Sounds like you want to adjust TX Delay. It's a standard parameter on
    all packet modems (TNCs, soundmodem, etc). It's the amount of time
    between key up and the transmission of actual data. Between key up
    and start of data, the modem transmits a preamble.

    Could be RF feedback. If your antenna is a Yagi fed with coax, do you
    have a balun at the feed point (eg rolled up coax)?
