For the 2000 WPX CW I borrowed NV4X from K4MA. This
turned out to be a big mistake for CW. Most seemed to copy it
as N4VX, possibly because of the similarity to K4VX. I tried
slowing down only the letter V, using half spaces between the
letters, etc, etc, all to no avail. After only 3 hours I figured
it was going to be a long weekend. Fortunately my XYL rescued
me by requiring an early Saturday AM visit to the hospital where
I spent the rest of the weekend.
Stay away from those NV prefixes on CW!
