In theory you could use the morse(6) command on a FreeBSD box to key a
serial line to do this. There is no inherent upper limit in the keying
speed that I can think of, but it's been quite a while since I wrote
that code. The speed calibration is derived from the computers system
clock, so it should be bang-on. But again, read the code before taking
my word for it; I wrote that as a weekend project, not as a test
harness :-)
