ok it appears my problem is with my script, not sftp:

specifically with using tee or > in the command: (time $mycommand) 2>&1 | 
tee $tempFile

I am trying to time $mycommand which is "sftp who AT where DOT com < 
fileWithActions"
I need the output of _time_ and then i head and tail it and send to perl for 
formatting, then it's bannered and logged

however using > or tee prevents sftp from outputting progress only though, 
it tells me everything else like changing directory, enabling progress

How can I use > or tee and write output of _time_ to a file, yet still be 
able to see the progress inside of sftp ?

-----------------------------------------
mycommand="$myftp robertbody AT robertbody DOT com /home/Owner/bin/ftp/tgz"
(time $mycommand) 2>&1 | tee $tempFile

sleep 3   # delay ftp, due to ftpd running on velcom, to rename file
change-title "cygwin";

#---------------Problem with FTP-----------------------
if [ -a $ftpProblemFile ]; then
  rm $ftpProblemFile
  touch $gtfProblemFile  # report up to "g"
  echo "$H ftp problem discovered ...exiting";
  exit;
fi;
#------------------------------------------------------

cat $tempFile | tail -3 | head -1 | awk {'print $2'} > $tempFile2
$perl_time `cat $tempFile2` | tee $tempFile

$my_banner "`cat $tempFile`";
-----------------------------

my logging lets me store something like this, the second time value is FTP 
transfer time:
