Comments:

I was working around the house getting ready to go over to K1IR's and watch the
Pats game later in the day, but thought I'd get on and give out a few QSOs.
I was using my 756 Pro to wires with N1MM.

A Dit Matters...

I'm amazed at the number of experienced CW ops in this contest who did copy
my call sign correctly, and who relied too heavily on the "friends" file to get
an exchange.  

Both Dennis, W1UE, and myself, Gerry, W1VE were on for this contest.  Probably
25 people (!) had my call as W1UE, even though I was loud to them (sigs > S9)
and I sent my call sign from N1MM (And I even checked with a 2nd RX to make
sure my CW was not clipping or something).   When I corrected them on the call
sign, it took them a long time to correct my name/state, etc.

Have we forgotten our CW Skills??

73,

Gerry, W1VE
