Zero beating your transmit signal to that of the station you are calling
is not necessarily the best thing to do. Even in a ragchew or round table QSO, when signal levels permit, it is nice to hear a variety of tones intead of all the same note.

Amen Ken!!  You have "raised THIS flag, and I salute it!  :-)

When two and three guys in the roundtable are exactly on the same freq and all using keyers or keyboards, (and TenTec gear, of course) it's hard to tell who is talking if QSK is used. Egad, we have unwittingly reached the "cloning" stage for CW communicators... Gulp! :-) (U notice I didn't say "brasspounders"..... gee, I no see no brass anymore) :-)
