And  some of today's software applications {HRD}  have provision for MCW.  One must be careful how the interface between the computer and radio is constructed so as not to have anything in the audio path which would contribute to less than a pure sinewave signal.    Actually this is exactly how AFSK and other data modes work.  A tone frequency is sent to the radio to produce the MARK signal and a different frequency tone is sent to produce a SPACE signal.

In all cases,  a clean signal path between the computer and the radio is found to be mandatory.   Hum, buzz, clicks, pops and a mike left open are all a NO NO!

Oh no! NOW you tell me that all these years that I have believed that I have been operating CW, it's really SSB!

(Disclaimer to avoid the otherwise inevitable explanations that a pure audio tone transmitted via SSB is identical with CW: I know that).
