And some (FT-2000 for example) have a jack that can be wired to an
external switch specifically for the purpose of providing a carrier
regardless of mode. This is separate from the CW key jack. I find
that very convenient since my homebrew amps are in a rack, and thus
not directly beside the rig. I have a momentary pushbutton mounted
on the rack which causes the rig to give a steady carrier for
tuning the amps.
