Like some others, I got caught on 20M too long and didn't pay
attention to the rate meter when it went down to the 30's. This time
I tried setting up the 2 vfo's about 5kc apart and toggled back and
forth after each Q - first trying to find a Q that was just ending and
if that didn't materialize, calling cq on a clear(?) freq.
Had some 10 q rates of 95, but couldn't maintain that.
I don't think my trouble is winning pile-ups--I don't know what my
trouble is.
Used 36 wpm to try to gain some time that I would waste in other
fashions.
Starting to prelog next q in and advance number that the station I was
intending to work next ( ha) by one. Still in habit of hitting insert
key when in the mode of being the contact initiator (guy calling cq).
This puts my call at the end of the q instead of in the beginning. I
got into the habit of hitting the escape key after the other station's
call was sent and then hitting the proper "F" key with the correct info
sequence.
This is a 40 q improvement from last time. Where the hell do I get the
next 40?
Danny, don't feel bad. I called K7SV Dan and copied K7SS until
corrected. Not good for either rate.
Jeez
