Comments: This was a tough one for me, I fractured my right shoulder before
Xmas and I am still only able to use my left hand. I programmed Writelog
with all the buttons so I could use the mouse for 90% of the work and but
learned a bunch of new tricks in Writelog to speed up logging thanks to
Don's web site. I got the 350 hz filter for my ICOM 706 as many in the
group had suggested, and boy does it really help alot. I also got a new
microHAM on the Thursday before, but I could only get the FSK going in
time, so no radio control. I found the bands noisy and tough to work much
DX from my QTH but had alot of fun. See you in the next one with both arms
hopefully.
