Hello Staf,
I concur completely with what Wolf has said. Both Yaesu and Kenwood
(and I suspect Icom too) have the
rig switched to USB when using CW. Just the filter width and its
position relative to the theoretical carrier
do change. So adding a CW choice to the mode would mean just to
duplicate the USB settings, with perhaps
just a change of center frequency (in Jason). But this can be easily
done manually.

Hello Staf,
From a technical point of view, there is only USB and LSB in a
receiver, "CW" is one of these with additional filtering (and a
frequency offset added, the "pitch", usually something like 650...800
Hz). To use your receiver in "CW" mode, you need to find out if that
is in fact "USB" or "LSB", and add (or subtract) the CW "pitch" to the
display frequency offset. Some rigs have a "CW reverse" mode. What it
is, depends on the manufacturer. My old kenwood uses USB for CW and
LSB for "CW reverse".
