Please pass on to non-reflector folks, too:
When I give a 449 or a 339 report, that should tell all listeners to change
their calling habits. A nice polite single or at most double sending of
one's call sign is not enuf for:
-a weak CW op like me,
-bad condx with rapid and deep QSB,
-many callers.
Surely there is a better way, but what I have been doing is add 500 hz
filters on both IFs, and then use the passband tuning to seek a sig I can
copy. By the time I tune, the last two letters are being sent and the sig
stops sending. I use split, but am loath to use a chunk of the band to
listen over 5 to 10kc. I am gonna re-read the DXpeditioning books. I gotta
get better at this. 73
