As pro Swing drummer I would say its a pity there is not a bit more 
swing to many of the CW stations I copy. Many straight and bug operators 
were recognisable by their 'fist'. Too many today use keyers that are 
set too fast or have no rhythmic sense at all, running characters 
together, which makes it very hard to copy.
Perhaps Elecraft could come up with QSD correcter.
