Steve,

You're making too much of this request.
Some of us like to set up our CW message
ports prior to the contest and it would be nice
if we could do that without having to turn on the
radio!!!   That's it nothing more or less. 
I'm sorry that you can't understand that little
request.  It's not a big deal...  Forget it already
