That is one reason I don't like fone(y) contests.  It's hard for
me to get it right the first time.  I have a hard time
understanding some of the accents and when conditions are poor. I
would probably be guessing at half the calls I logged if I were
running stations.  CW is much easier to get calls right the first
time.  73
