Using a PC to send DVK files or cw files is a TOOL that helps the 
operator. It does not replace the unit between the ears that makes 
decisions as to band, who to work, how to work the contest.  QSK is a 
TOOL that helps us be more efficient, for some of us anyway.

When the PC digs the signal out of the noise, decides which band I 
should be on, which way to point the antenna etc I will be among the 
first to find another hobby. Until then I will use whatever TOOL  I can 
to help me enjoy my hobby. 73 bob de w9ge
