through the LPT port to the software and from what I can tell, this then
seems to require the W5XD. I guess I am mistaken on this then. If so,
how do folks send hand CW without an external keyer?

Definitely does - K4JA did it in his SO2R setup.

No, it just takes some jumper settings inside the DXD itself. Paul
didn't
use the XD keyer.

I use my DXD with DX4WIN (and N1MM Logger, but that's another story).
No
problems within the limited range of what DX4WIN does - sending CW,
mainly. AFSK also works, from MMTTY.
