[Elecraft] ending in K

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Yes. I've used the program "CW GET" for that purpose for some years. 

As Amateur operators spend more and more time with "machine CW" from their
keyers, quite frankly they are becoming poorer at copying CW. If it's not
perfect Morse many simply cannot copy it. 

Nothing teaches "machine" sending like sending to a dumb machine!

I've never had trouble understanding what NN M A  followed by DE and a call
sign means ;-)
