Greg, I agree, the fast keying rings in bad conditions and narrow filters here
in the tropics, very slow speeds used by many and the QSB eats the signal. 20
wpm is a good compromise to hit the QSB peak and not too fast for the bad (read
always bad) conditions many of us in the middle of no where face every night.
My 2 rupiah worth.
