Tony, I was going to mention the bumps. HI HI. I ran a MFJ Iambic Keyer ( a group of us in the Brandon club started using them). I had it mounted on a thick piece of plexiglass next to my leg on a long floor/hump mounted stem. When you hit the bumps, "all bets where off" ,you just went with the flow. I used to send the cw correction, then cw "just hit bump in road hi hi" the receiving hams got a big kick out of it. Hope to work you. hal WD4MDA ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tony" <d...@optonline.net> To: <digitalradio@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Friday, May 21, 2010 5:00 AM Subject: Re: [digitalradio] Speech-to-Text for the Handicapped
