Wayne, That was a great Idea. I have operated mobile for years and am very bad about logging. I do know that a lot of folks use a cell phone that has messaging to record or log important contacts. I don't own a cell phone but wanted to share the information.

You then snag a new state or country and want to remember the call, etc. What to do? This happened to me today while walking around with my KX1. I worked AA5AE in New Mexico using 1.5 watts and a 4-foot whip--a new state for my pedestrian-mobile effort. Not trusting my memory (for the time, call, QTH, name, and RST), I used one of the KX1's two CW message buffers to log the QSO. On arriving home, I played back the buffer (in P=0 playback mode) and logged the QSO. 73, Wayne N6KR --- http://www.elecraft.com _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft You must subscribe to post.
