Not quite true Jim. Perhaps it would be true to say " Most software 
only CW implementation..." 



Win-Test produces superb CW from its USB or parallel port 
with just about any computer that will host Windows 7 or 10.

Any software only CW implementation is going to have timing issues, 
especially with the newer operating systems. Best to offload that task to a 
processor with nothing else to do. Winkey or Mortty or something similar.
