In work-horse applications most people simply want to get the CW ID out of the way. Especially at locations where multiple CW audio is received and resent mixed. Linking is a great example where a fast non-obtrusive CW ID is better applied. If the CW ID frequency and level are not well chosen values, it can easily and does often interfere with an ongoing conversation (exchange of information). cheers, s.
