Bob, the K3 and KX3 ( and possibly others) have this feature and that is what the OP was asking about. See SSB + CW. It is hidden away under the CW WGHT menu. It is a -fantastically- useful feature especially on VHF bands where often CW can be used to help complete a contact that started on SSB and QSB made copy difficult. Just hit the paddles while still in SSB mode and send CW without having to think about changing to CW mode first and whether you need to alter VFO etc. The other station who has you tuned in on SSB will hear the CW in his receiver at approximately your chosen sidetone frequency. What can't all manufacturers have this ? - It is so blindingly obvious that if I use my key that I want to send CW and if I press my microphone PTT that I want to speak on SSB. Others make you have to press mode buttons just so I can quickly send a R or K on the key while in an SSB QSO.
