[RTTY] Friends.txt file

I recall the value of the friends.txt file.  When I would get the HI DON,
I had
a macro that said something like MYCALL AA5VU AA5VU NOT AA5AU. If they
failed to 
get the word, they would send the WORKED B4 when Don tried to work them.

I like seeing HI DON because sometimes if copy is marginal and I do see my
call
clearly (when I'm S&P), when I see HI DON then I know the report is for
me.? I
support using the HI file even though I don't use it.? Many times I see
AA5AQ,
AA9AU, and all kinds of variations where a bit gets missed and seeing DON
confirms it's probably me!
