[Dx4win] Side Tone Keyer

[Mel]

DX4Win generates the CW using the "PC Speaker" in the computer 
enclosure. This is NOT connected to the sound card... it is a simple 
programmable beeper dating back to the earliest PCs and is used, for 
example, to issue POST BIOS warnings.

If you are not hearing the CW your PC speaker may not be connected... or 
perhaps your PC doesn't even have one.

I have suggested to Paul (a long time ago) that he consider supporting 
CW through the sound card. I imagine it's somewhere on his todo list...
