The problem with the MFJ-464 is that you have to listen to CW at 700 Hz. I 
like to copy at 400 Hz. I bought the MFJ-464 to use to verify what I thought 
I was copying, at QRQ speeds, was actually what was sent.

I use the 464 to send keyboard CW for those days when my fist is not up to 
par. My preferred method of sending is with my WBL paddle and Logikey K-5
