Normally, "CW" means morse-code.
But, in this instance, am I correct in thinking it stands for "continuous wave"
or, in other words, an unmodulated FM signal (constant carrier and
amplitude)?
Yes; "CONTINUOUS wave."
It's not really an unmodulated "FM" signal; it's an unmodulated carrier.
There's no reason to assign an arbitrary modulation designation -- why
not say it's an unmodulated FSK or PSK signal?
