[SESprint] W4OC CW Sprint Summary

[Pete Smith]

Great job, Don, and thanks for the Qs.

Sorry to hear about your radio -- I'm getting set up to do serious SO2R, and have built a receiver protector for each radio, hopefully to prevent such things.  It will be in the next NCJ, if you are interested.  And by the way, Dimension 4 is an absolutely wonderful way to synchronize your computer clock with Internet standard time servers - freeware too.

73, Pete
