I hate CW weighting other than the standard.

Some folks think off-standard gets them noticed.

It does by me.... to avoid that signal at all costs!

DX stations seams to like it, but never got any compliments on it. They do like my AEA 25 year old keyer on how it sounds on the Omni VI plus on received many nice compliments on how the CW sounds with the Omni VI Plus, but I keep blowing pin diodes in the Omni when I use it.
