Ah yes. The long gone days of the bug and swing fists. In those days you could recognize your friends by their fist before they signed their calls. A good bug fist is rarely heard these days on the b

Guys, Have to agree with Tony, W4FOA, in that there is nothing wrong with a distinctive fist that one can copy. Those of us who were self taught strived to learn and be proficient and perfection cert

There is the key to coin a phrase! A fist one can copy. Most times when I am QSOing someone with a bug with a bad swing I give up after the second round. If you are going to use a bug at least put e

Exactly George. That is what communications is all about...not sending some jibberish that only the sender understands. I think that is why the FCC used to make sending a part of their exams. 100 wat

I couldn't agree more with Bill...but those are the exceptions. I was primarily referring to ragchewing, etc.....one of my favorite fists to hear and copy is that of Senor Ben, YN4SN. Ben is an outst

++Well I think the best way to avoid that is 1. Don't call him if he is CQing and/or 2. Just tell him, I'm sorry I can't copy your fist. In either case, I think either would be appropriate and under

Hello Bill like you, Qrp ops use skill, not power! (smile) I use the TT 1340 and the 516 (currently building 1320) and find that some ops don't listen. Maybe they are looking for a arm chair copy, in

Ron. I presume the "we" refers to the guy trying to copy the QRP station. I could never understand why those QRP awards were given to the low power station when it was the guy at the other end doing
