I always prefer((( sending CW myself )))rather than with the computer;  a
signature, if you will.  

QUACK  Comments::
Jon I don't think with electronic keyers there is enough indivudality for
most of us to recognize a different  fist

Now I know why I can never copy some of the PJ4B ops.....

The thing that I have felt for years that keeps DUPEs down is a
destinctive call.    My DUPE  rate has been low for years with  W5QQQ/7 
and  K7QQ
With all the new   1x2  calls on now however the Dupe  rate seems to be
up.
A large number of computer logging programs is the most help.

This year for the first time I tried to log um rather than  say  QSO B4
its quicker and then I know for sure they are in the log.  If they got my
call wrong the first time, thats their problem.

This may help keep the dupes away, if you have a real accent?

This year I was involved in a M/M at PJ4B and that allowed me the rest I
needed and more.
I certainly didn't get caught reciting my 'daydreams' in play by
play...this isn't a sleep deprevation
thing...this is a sleep thing, right?

Do this happen to you?
