How do I use CT to send CW? CT requires a simple interface between either a
COM or LPT port and your radio's "CW KEY" input. You can build one using the
schematic in the CT manual, or you can purchase a pre-made interface from
one of the following sources (no endorsement is expressed or implied):

CT does *not* read CW, only sends it.

Does anyone do anything besides CW while DX'ing? I still have to
learn/practice CW but would like to try my hand at DX. I know that CW
is generally most efficient at low power, but if you don't yet know
it..it isn't much help..



Oh yes there's a lot of DX on voice. Generally the pile ups are bigger and
more unruley though. That makes it quite a bit harder. Then of course the
signal to noise ratio is also poorer. However, I've worked quite a few on
voice using no more than 100 watts and a G5RV.

I have worked all but 2 countries on both Voice and CW (only missing
the 2 newest entities) plus over 200 on RTTY. I find it easier to
work DX on CW but they both have their unique quirks. CW is more fun
and I worked my first 180 with less than 100 W and dipoles.
