I think you are serious...you think computer-generated/received CW is really
some advanced technology of the new millenium and you got your first taste
of it in 1996. Have you ever thought that that there were far more
"advanced" digital modes, superior to and more efficinet than CW, as long as
one decided to connect a PC to a radio? I personally ignore computer
CW....CW is not meant for a computer nor will it ever be...it is a human
mode that has a "body language" to it that computers are not good at
reading. For computers, PSK31 is a very simple, far superior machine mode to
computer CW in every way. If you said "PSK31, welcome to the new millenium"
I could go along with that. But computer generated CW? Sort of like
attaching a lawn mower engine to a bicycle and calling it a motorcycle,
isn't it? But far be it from me to criticize your toys. ;-)



PSK31 is obsolete ... and much too slow to be useful.

What software do you use to encode/decode and xfer mp3's and videos with
on the bands? What encryption method (algorithm) do you prefer? mp3?
ogg-vorbis? Do you use the same method for your speech packets? Do you
use variable bit encoding? Are you aware that ogg-vorbis is open source
and can be freely used?

You have missed the whole point, does the above help clarify it for you?
