[Elecraft] K3 Transmitting CW in SSB mode

Exactly Grant. Many of the early SSB rigs were basically SSB-only. So adding
a tone to the SSB signal was the simplest way to send "cw". But the opposite
sideband suppression is never perfect - too often far from it. 

That was no big deal back when over half of the signals on a "phone" band
were 6 kHz wide AM signals.

It's just a"few lines of code" ;) 

All done in DSP most likely.  Simpler than doing the same thing in an analog
radio.
