And not the little trim up type signal but a long, drawn out, squeeze every db from the the old dipole and every watt from the amp tune-up. I'll take my chances on the second half and hope for the best. Hopefully all of the big guns will have their Q plus back-up Q plus just in case Q in the log by then.

If they could, maybe they'd realise what they're doing wrong.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00953177737874649543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12559579.post-64904027588518509572009-02-16T18:37:00.000-05:002009-02-16T18:37:00.000-05:00pileup behavior is why I made all of about 5 QSOs ...pileup behavior is why I made all of about 5 QSOs last year.

And there could have been other people annoyed by the kilocycle cops.<BR/><BR/>While a lot of folks like to think CW operators are more gentlemanly, I've often thought that you don't hear profanity-laden bad behavior on CW like you do on phone because it's just more difficult to send long rants and gain an audience on CW.goodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09068811388940491546noreply@blogger.com
