I don't own a W5XD stuff, but other users do on this list, so they 
should be able to help you on this matter. But, when you hit the '*' key 
(or use the menu), don't you see a change in the current QSO background ?

You can should be able to set it in the Interface setup dialog (Options 
/ Interfaces), on the right side. There is a design error : the frame 
around this option makes feel that it only works for // ports, but it is 
used for any transmitted CW, wherever it comes from. Anyhow, rumors say 
that this dialog architecture will change in a very next version ;-)
