[Elecraft] K3: re CW ID macro on SSB

[Tom Hammond]

Actually, it's NOT actually 'illegal'... BUT... you MUST use SSB, and 
you MUST have every well-suppressed carrier.  I don't recall the 
exact amount of carrier suppression that's required, but it must be 
essentially negligible, thus, the tone is transmitted AS the CW 
carrier and the suppressed carrier is low enough that you won't hear it.

Collins, and a couple others which didn't offer CW mode, used to use 
a small plug-into-the-mic-jack sine wave oscillator which could be 
keyed and which would allow CW to be sent cleanly... in SSB mode.
