Waiting for BOH to remind us of enne.  I'm sure he can tell us all how many 
minutes (hours)
it saved him over the course of X,000 qso's.  And he is for real in that 
calculation!
  If I got that   enne as an exchange  my first action would be  F7,   I 
still use that for ?  ,

Cut numbers are fun.

Everybody knows and uses T (Ø) and N (9).

For variety, some use "O" for Ø...it is a welcome rhythm change on receive 
(for me) and
still shorter than 5 "dahs"

A (1) is gaining in usage and I hope in acceptance.  It is only logical that 
if you use N that
you would also use A.

E (5) I think is still reserved for use among good cw ops that know the 
other op's
capability.  I would never send E (5) to 95% of the guys I work (maybe 98%). 
If I hear a
top op, using E is both more efficient and (but mostly) more fun!

Waiting for BOH to remind us of enne.  I'm sure he can tell us all how many 
minutes (hours)
it saved him over the course of X,000 qso's.  And he is for real in that 
calculation!
