A Morsodist Challenge

Dick,

A simple straightforward challenge for you (and the rest of rrap).

During the 30 hours starting at 2100Z on Nov 1st, 2003 I will be
practicing Morsodism on the HF bands in the ARRL SS Radiosport event.
Keep up with me if you can.

May the Peace of St. Morse shower down upon thee in abundance,

de Hans, K0HB

Thine memory is faulty. Dick has no portable gear, and will be away
from thee power mains on said date.

Dick hath no pot to pee in.

Hans,

I'm only on 10 meters (and 440), but might talk Tim, WB2KAO into sharing his
shack. As long as you aren't using a computer to send and receive Morse, I
think neither of us will have too much trouble. No straight keys, though;
too dang slow. The best I ever managed was 27 WPM on those things. Kills
your wrist in a hurry. :)

10M will be problematic on our mutual path. Best bet would seem to be
Sunday about 1900-2130Z.

I don't know of any serious radiosporters using a computer to copy Morse.
Computers don't like the wide variability which our wetware modems process
without a problem.

Only incompetents use a computer to receive morse code.

And doing so in a contest is really dumb. Takes more time to get it zeroed
in than it would if you bothered to learn cw at a reasonable speed.

See you in SSCW single op. And SSphone multi op.

Oh and in the last five years I have 4 cups phone and cw. And one cup phone
only.

Missed em both in 99.
