I first started using full break-in many years ago when I was active in
the CW traffic nets.  You need QSK so you can hear the other station
break in for "fills".

But I soon became addicted to it for all my CW operating.  I feel like
I'm half-blind when I can't hear what is happening on the channel while
in transmit mode.
