NO3M, 2,136 miles away from my station, after about 30 repeats correctly
received my call and message.
An operating technique usually not spoken of, is not transmitting back
until everything is correctly or (thought correctly) received.
I first was aware of this technique when i was operating from a B&B in
Canterbury as M/W7DRA/P.
An HA3 (I can't remember the whole call) sent a ? and about 5 minutes
later of me sending my call in groups of 3 he got my call correct, and
then we started on the message.
this technique flies in the face of the Rate King (or maybe it should be
called the rate monkey on my back?)
Once an acknowledgement is made, a super human effort is put forth to
complete the contact
Thanks to the wisdom of the QRZ locator, I see the summer stew station to
station mileage distance for my 8 contacts.....
2136, 825, 633, 293, 220, 119, 111, 12.
