PS. And please don't build in the option to add a chirp to the signal
either.
Hey, you hit on a good idea there. Now days everybody sounds the same, clean
pure signals, and electronic keyers. In the "Good ole days", so they say, you
could tell who people were by the sound of their signal and their fist,
before they gave their call. Just think of it, if you could add varying
degrees of chirp, hum, raspy tone, etc. with software on the K3, you could
make amateur radio just like the "Good ole days".
Just think of it..,some folks might actually send cw without keyers or
computers....but that would be painful, it might require more hand-eye
coordination and some sense of spacing, etc.
As far as chirp, hum, etc.....wasn't there a series of posts about how the K3
"sounds", compared to the K2 and other rigs? Geez, maybe Aptos best stamp out a
distictive K3 sound(g).
