Hi Don
Yes - we both remember the Don Miller style of working a CW pileup pretty much
the same way.
In this case, I quickly realized that if I stuck with the CORE PILE I was going
to have to really WORK HARD in order to pull out any calls - because the guys
were totally out of control and calling wildly and non-stop.
I am not sure how I came to do what I did, except to say - that, like you, I
knew the opening might not repeat itself (Krassy too had only one night at ST0R
that was wide open) and he made the most of it I learned from that and from
the
Miller remembrances.
So I just winged it and listened up and down for those on the fringes - in
order
to maximize the potential of the opening.
Hi Jeff,
Sorry I missed you from 7O6T.
I remember Don Miller very well. I worked him from every place that he went.
My first QSO with him was in 1959 on 15 CW, when I was in Germany in the Army.
I
was DL4SH.
At that time he was WN9WMV.
