Hi Phil,

Thanks for my first contact. 

 I couldn't believe it!  This past two weeks I have made my first 
Olivia,Contestia,Hell (I worked PSK31 for a good while 2 years ago) . I work 
the Votar contest 6 contacts  LOL.  Worked the Hell contest Saturday morning  
13 contacts.  I am moving upward.  This of course does not reflect , antenna 
building,Macro's etc. testing to dummy load by countless hours.

Now the story behind ALE 400:

I saw all the email here on ALE 400. Went to dummy load tested for the  sound.  
I never heard if before.

 I have more time in the dummy load than on the air   LOL!.  -

Being New to digital modes. 

 I am in the middle of a Olivia QSO (I have the Solomon Reed ID on plus the 
rest of them - I clicked them all) Bingo my QSO flips to ALE 400 - HEY! this is 
neat I am in ALE 400.  I had figured that the other ham had flipped over to 
the other mode.  I didn't know how transmitt, call, send or what to do -  LOL 
got to love it.  

That started me reading on ALE 400.  Then everybody on the reflector said Tony 
has this great article.  WHERE  I said.  Finally got my QST and NCJ magazine.  
HELLO there was the article.  Thanks Tony it was a great article.  (still 
working on Auxillary  HI! )  Now I am really pumped. I spent months getting 
things setup for RTTY.  AFSK/FSK /RTS /CTS/DTR  ??? . But it has worked out.

Phil, thanks for my first ALE 400 contact and your patience.  I think I hit the 
End button several times.  LOL/HI  and sorry I was so liddy .  It reminded 
me on my first CW contacts as a Novice. It was a lot of fun.

Phil,  have a great week ,  hope to work you soon, 73 and thanks again.
