From an old dedicated CW operator......licensed since 1937 and was a high
speed CW operator at WAR 41/42...
Computer generated CW has allowed many operators with problems or handicaps
to produce perfect CW.
Yes, to answer your question, it is valid for CW DXCC. There are no
restrictions on how you copy...with a pencil, on a mill or via a code
reader.

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.
