>> Technology....when is it "too much?"

Not that this really apply to an Elecraft radio, but I couldn’t resist to
comment;

First of all, interesting that no one complained about the K3 internal CW
decoder but found the time to question the functionality of this software :)

Technology evolves and this enhances our hobby! I applause VE3NEA and other
developers for creating new ways to enjoy the hobby, it will move us forward
and keep ham radio attractive to the next generation.

BTW, I tried to learn CW the old fashioned way in the early 80's and gave up
several times as it was just plain boring. With new technology I was able to
use my computer to learn CW in my own pace while having fun at the same
time. I learned the code and passed the test in less than 2 months.
