W5ALT says that the maximum bandwidth for a CW signal (assuming
you're modulating with a square wave) is 26 x wpm (http://
www.comportco.com/~w5alt/cw/cwindex.php?pg=5). So that makes the
bandwidth--at most--520 Hz. I would assume that the K2 shapes the
signal, so the bandwidth should be narrower.
73!

The old rule was 5xWPM in Hz for a properly-shaped CW signal. I
remember studying this for my Novice.
Is that still accepted?

Anyone know the bandwidth of transmitted CW at about 20 wpm
on an up-to-date K2?
