Yes, if you choose to use the CW buffer (it's user selectable) then all CW will be delayed. That works quite well for speeds up to +/- 80 wpm even with the transceiver's sidetone. Going higher in speed will indeed put your brain into "nuts-mode" (at least mine ;-)) that's why there is also a small piezo inside the box and the availability to also connect an external speaker if you prefer. Both will give direct feedback to what you actually send, the internal sidetone is generated before the delay. In this case you'd have to switch of the transceiver's sidetone, of course. Anyway, enough on that topic on the mailing list I suggest, don't want to bore people with those details that are usually only relevant to VHF+ guys who really need a sequencer. ;-)) If anyone has anymore questions please feel free to contact me off-list, I will be glad to answer them.
