[CQ-Contest] The History of automated voice for SSB Contesting

[Ron Notarius W3WN]

If you search the QST archives, you'll find an article from Doug W3AS about "The Electronic Lozenge", circa 1977-78. Doug also came up with a method for putting a voice CQ onto a continuous loop tape.

 
Actually, the article was titled "The Electronic Sucret" but QST changed it. They also removed the word "sucret" from the picture that accompanied the device!
