Of course you haven't they don't talk about that in Morse Code

During FD 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005, none of the ops present sat about
chatting in morse code. I use any number of modes in my amateur radio
operation, Mark.

You do as you can; I'll do as I choose.


I can use any mode I want Dave we have had that dicussion before even
CW if I like

Super, Mark. Next Field Day, you do your CW thing with a PC and morse
reading software. I'll do it the old-fashioned way and work CW only.
We'll see if you can really operate CW or whether you're blowing smoke.
If I don't beat you by a 10:1 QSO ratio, I'll relent and consider you a
real CW op. I'm even willing to proclaim it here if you accept the
challenge. Logs must be submitted to the ARRL.



but of course you have no sense of humor either

I'm responding to you, aren't I?

more nonsesne from Dave

What nonsense, Mark? You said you could use CW. Use it. Take up the
challenge. I've given you ten to one odds. You make 100 QSOs and I'd
have to make at least 1,000 to win. How easy do I have to make it for
you?

I'm a no-"nonsesne" kind of guy.

Dave,

Everything is "nonsesne" to him. Especially those that disagree with him.
Which seems to be most everyone.

In all honesty, I think anything written is perplexing to Mark. He
assumes that if it is nonsense to him, it is nonsense to all--a sort of
equal opportunity confusion.

I made him an easy challenge. Even a guy who uses code-reading software
and a PC should be able to generate 100 QSOs during a 24-hour FD period.
Maybe I'm being unfair to him. Perhaps I need to give him a 15:1 ratio
as an advantage. I've offered to publicly acknowledge him as a real CW
op if he wins. I think I should be able to claim something if he loses.
Perhaps he could kiss my ass on the fifty-yard line at a WVU home
football game if he falls short.

Maybe he has re-thought his claim about his being able to use CW.
