Default Morse code (when did CW become "Morse Code"?)

I'm not sure what point you are trying to make here. Are you arguing
with something which was said in this thread, or is it something you've
picked up from somewhere else?


The point is none of my radios say "Morse Code". They say "CW".


I've just realised I I've got another receiver which says 'BFO'. So,
I've got radios which say 'SSB', 'CW', 'USB', 'LSB', and 'BFO'. The
funny thing is, when switched to these positions, they all can receive
what I mistakenly call 'Morse Code', which is what the OP was asking
about.

On my PC, I have several programs concerned with reception and
transmission of that funny beepy stuff. With one exception, they are all
about something anachronistically called 'Morse Code'. You really would
think that their authors would know better, wouldn't you?
