I agree completely with Joe, having found this a convenient feature on
HF when using an FT-897.

After experiencing it with the FT-2000, I find "auto CW" a joy
to use for tuning a quiet band ... I can tune in SSB and, if I
find myself in the CW band, answer a CW call without the need
to frantically change modes and retune.
Quite simply, if one is in LSB and taps the key, the radio should
automatically shift to CW zero beat with the "normal" CW offset
(e.g., 500 Hz, 600 Hz, etc.) - if one is in USB, the radio should
shift to CW-R with the proper offset. Similarly, changing modes
from LSB to CW should result in no change in received tone and
changing modes from USB to CW should automatically select CW-R
with no change in received tone.
