[Elecraft] "Auto CW" function

[Alexandr Kobranov]

Hello all,
is there some support for request for "AUTO CW ON/OFF" firmware 
function as some rigs are having (FT-897)?

It means SSB mode choosed, RX in SSB mode normally but when Key  is 
activated (touched for CW sending) there is automatic shift of carrier 
and CW is transmitted (as in standard CW mode, SEMI or FULL-BK etc.) 
then going back to SSB mode for RX. Hope you understand :-)

This is very useful during UHF/SHF contests (with transverters) when 
calling CW CQ but takers are calling in SSB (mostly or very often). No 
need for switching mode (you have SSB all the time) and to touch dial 
knob to reply etc. Very comfortable and (I hope) not so serious for 
firmware.
I know this is very special and on HF bands there is probably no 
reason for such function, my experience is based on serious contesting 
on higher bands (1296 and up).

If this is already somewhere inside and I missed something and my 
sorry for this Q.

73!
