Just done that, 15m cw, no software at all, on my 751A 100W + 3 el beam.(&
Yes - it was rough...)
In the really humongous CW pileups, it's very hard to find the station that the
DX is working when you are using a narrow bandwidth and slow tuning rate -- and
of course these are what you need to hear the weak DX station. Even the N4PY
software (which I have and like) doesn't really switch fast enough if the DX
station is working quickly at high speed.
I've suggested to Elecraft that they make it possible to select bandwidths and
tuning rate per-VFO. Maybe they will do it.
