Hello
of course we have choices and we can all do it any which way we choose.
My question was about the feeling of doing a CW and a JT65 QSo on topband.
I worked a new one on JT65 and really didn´t feel the excitement working it
as I did with any new one on CW
Maybe for digital lovers is great. They feel the same working RTTY or JT65?
