Yes, easy. Not inexpensive (at least for some of us... SM0VPO's solution
can cost less than $20 and what is wrong with building our own every
once and a while :) ) and it is DSP/software based so unless it is
working in the frequency domain and not the time domain (I hope I got
that right) it will generate significant time delays between input and
output signals. As most dedicated CW ops tend to enjoy QSK this could
cause a significant problem.
I have NOT used the 599ZX so my thoughts on it are assumptions only.
Anyone have one that they can do an audio comparison of input and output
to see if there is a time shift/delay?
