Yes, but one of the outstanding things about the CW+ feature is the
excellent QSK operation.  I seldom work CW at more than 25 WPM, but I
like to use the CW+ setting for it's better QSK.

I agree with Guy.  I'd like to see the QSK performance of CW+ in the
standard CW QSK setting.  If it were there, I would never use the CW+
setting.
