  I agree, Matt!

 

I made a bunch of meteor QSOs that way this weekend, in the 40 wpm range.

 

My average speed was 32, slow for me.   If I needed to QRS, I did.

 

And, Joe, I agree with you that LIDs who don't QRS don't make QSOs.

 

I also find when I'm 35 plus, people Miss the Dit and call me W1UE.

So I have to weigh in that factor.

 

73,
