During contests, I always let the computer generate the CW, even
sometimes using the keyboard feature, although I'll occasionally
reach for the paddles.
The computer can send faster and more accurately than I can.
Keyboards aren't a new phenomenon. I remember being active in a slow-
speed traffic handling net in the late 70s and one of the net
controls was a blind ham who would regularly do 40+ wpm with a
keyboard. It was funny to listen to him close the net at 5 wpm, then
crank it up to 40 wpm a minute later.
