Ron have you checked out the SKCC Straight Key Century Club www.skccgroup.com ?
They have a monthly event just like the ARRL straight key night as well as sprints and other operating events. The general rule is that CW must be sent by mechanical means such as a bug or straight key.
When you hear me on you can sure tell it is NOT computer generated CW! :-)
