Well Jerry I think I qualify as a serious CW operator , Honor Roll CW and
all with my Bencher or vibroplex speed key. I believe no matter how the
signal is generated, computer, key, etc, what goes out over the air is a CW
signal composed of dots and dashes. What you hear is a CW signal and how
you copy it or generate the CW signal, I do not believe is addressed in the
DXCC regs.
I hear some SSB ops actually use a recording device to transmit their call
and actually record the incoming signal. But I guess your theory is that it
really isn't true SSB operations.

Apparently SV2ASP/A is sending and receiving CW using a computer program
in
both directions. Does this qualify as a "real" CW QSO? Valid for CW DXCC?
If the answer is yes, the next question is.... should it be?
No flames, please....it's only a question. I'm not singling out Monk
Apollo,
there's a growing number of guys doing this. And it's a serious
question.... I'm just wondering about the opinions of serious CW ops out
there.
