Just an idea, and I know it's not "official"...but is it possible to
use software and integrate a PC into your rig to send/receive CW and
convert back and forth into text on the PC? *Possibly with some
software and an audio card on the PC? *In other words, the PC receives text from the
keyboard..converts to CW and sends to rig, rig receives CW and sends
to PC which converts
back to text on the PC screen?

There has been both hardware and software approaches to doing this
for more than 20 years that I know of. *But, when conditions get bad
the best DSP for copyoing CW is still the human.


As I said earlier, I have been off the air for two decades. I recently
hooked up my ancient Kantronics All Mode just for grins and it does still
work (I use it for RTTY, as I remembered, it doesn't copy CW very well at
all). You can't even find documentation at the Kantronics site for this
box anymore. I would recommend looking in something like a recent AES
catalog.
