CW mode (or at least CW offset)

This software is fantastic, and I like listening to CW on it. Would there be a way to create a separate CW mode? The reason being is that CW operators are used to reading the frequency that the signal is transmitted on, not where it is received. So if we had a 700 Hz offset (a good default) when in this mode the frequency (just the readout) would read +700Hz (if CW is in USB). Of course in this mode the default could be a 500 Hz bandwidth as well. Like I mentioned it works very well, but it would save me from having to do math and would be a lot easier to scan the band with!

A CW mode would be great. I've also been wondering why there are only LSB and USB.

As far as I know, the chip doesn't allow for that, not even in terms of selectivity.
You can hear CW if you select an SSB mode. Not as nice as narrowband CW, but it still works.

Oh, I think that the 500 Hz bandwidth works really well! What I was thinking is simply a mode that when toggled activates both: 1) the 500 Hz bandwidth as default, and 2) a 700 Hz offset to the frequency display (not the actual VFO, just the display). That way the radio follows the conventions of other CW receivers (where the tone is being transmitted).
