Thank you Mark,
I have setup a folder in my mail client to hold all of the messages for
this project. Most of the correspondence will be off-list. I am going to
ask for help from members of a couple of other lists as well as help
from people who may feel they are not familiar or not familiar enough
with what zero beat is all about. If some of those hams read our drafts
and have questions we can redo that part until the "target audience"
gets a clear picture.
Several people have offered to help with this. Too many cooks can spoil
the soup so I will wait a bit before casting a wider net to see if other
Top Band CW ops join us.
73,
Bill KU8H
