Why would you not want your post on this topic to be public?
Jukka's
measurements are entirely correct. Message content and keying speed
affect the clicks in addition to the shape of the CW envelope.
Jukka's measurements were of a relatively clean radio compared to the
dirtier ICOM and Yaesu models. For those dirtier rigs, keying wave-shape
will be more significant.
Also, the average power in the sidebands is not what matters, it is the
peak power (i.e., the transients) that causes the QRM.
