I find that if I set the dash length on my Icom PRO2 - the only CW keying
adjustment it has other than rise and fall time - to maximum (the ratios are
then 1:1:4.5), the keyer makes the code sound a little like the old bug
operator who likes to drag out the dashes. Haven't had nerve to try it in a
Fox Hunt yet, but trust me, it is a "distinctive" sound!   <:}
