I always have a keyer in parallel with the PC and always QRS when
called by a QRS station. Also on N1MM it only takes a couple of presses
of the Page Down key to send the call and report slower, then put it
back up again for the final TU. I was surprised at the courage of a
couple of M3s who called me on 3513 at a hesitant 15 wpm.
Enjoyable contest.
