My call (KZ1M) is great for CW, very nice rhythm, and I also get nice 
comments about it on phone ragchews, but people, especially if English is not 
their first language, seem to have a hard time with the "Zulu" in the 
phoenetics. I'll say "Kilo Zulu One Mike" , they'll come back with "Kilo 
Something One Mike", I'll resend as "Kilo Zanzibar One Mexico" ,and then they 
reply, "OK, Kilo Zulu One Mike"! Also, a another problem is that my call is 
very close to another very well known call, K1ZM. Do you know how many times 
I get called "Jeff"? I actually bought my TS-940 from Jeff, so maybe that's 
the problem.Haw! 73, Jim KZ1M.
