[Elecraft] CW audio

I believe this is caused by the shift in the IF's center frequency when 
switching to CW. You can vary the shift with the "Shift" knob to change the 
sound. If you are in SSB mode and set your shift for an FC of 600 or 
whatever your cw FC is set for, it will sound just like you are in cw mode. 
Keep in mind however that if you change the shift in cw mode it will affect 
your ability to use narrow filtering. I usually just leave my shift at the 
default as indicated by the *. Note that changing the Pitch will change the 
shift FC.
