Hi folks, While asking for "nr nr" over and over this weekend on WAE CW, it occurred to me that I didn't know any "standard" practice for asking for the JUST that one digit or letter I'm missing. Not

Rowland, Try using better antennas (sorry, too hard to resist)! Seriously, I've always subscribed to the theory of keeping it simple. Sending "NR agn?" or just "NR?" is best. Trying to be cute with c

Rowland, IMO, what you describe is "part of the game" or "the penalty everyone suffers" when conditions are less than ideal. And I agree with you, the next static crash or fade seems to be timed perf

I've tried several methods for targeted fills but have never found one that works very well. I think a lot of casual guys just have one memory set up for the exchange. They don't want to risk botchin

Thanks for the answers so far -- sounds like there is no widely understood code for "send the second digit please!!" It does seem like it would be really helpful -- of course if conditions are poor,

That was helpful this weekend with QTC's -- people would ask for "TIME?" or "CALL?" on a specific QTC, Rowland, Check out Win-Test. It provides Function keys for handling the repeats of these QTC fie

Rowland, Very nice description of our usual QRN/QSB nightmare. I think that 3?9 is a good way to say what piece of information is missing. Sometimes the guy is able to send several times only the mis
