Comments:

I don't care much for phone but I wanted to help my club so I did what I
could with a low wire and rigs that didn't seem to be working right on
phone.  It's fun when you can break a pileup by calling out of synch
with the hordes but this only goes so far.  It helps a lot when the op
on the other end is savy like those at 6Y1V, 8P1A, PJ2T, etc., but in
other cases it's really hard to get through.  Phone seems to rely on
brute signal strength much more than CW and I suppose that's one big
reason why I prefer CW.  Had I put in the same hours in a CW contest, I
probably would have had three or four times the number of contacts.
