Hi Frank I agree with John, there is no bigger mistake than shying away because of fear or worries. I think there is a cycle to this as in life, you start out a bit rough, get refined then senility hits and then who cares! Really, there are more great operators that will be more than willing to work with you and before you know it you will be one of the guy's that help others. Get your feet wet and you will soon discover how fun cw is.

I've been at it for 50 years and still have problems. Some day maybe I'll be error free, but I doubt it. Dive in!
