Hi, everyone.
The subject line probably says it all. It has gotten to the point that
I can't hit the delete button fast enough, even when I don't read the
messages. When I first got my KX1 several years ago, the reflector was

What exactly are you hearing? Also, is it possible that you are

Hi, Dave.
This is an interesting idea, but it presupposes the new hams are taught traffic
handling, ICS training, and other things that makes them able to pass emergency
traffic with ANY rig. Maybe we should consider teaching Morse skills as a part
of emergency communications. After all, as much

Hi, John & Dan.
I started out using a straight key about the same time Dan did, but I still
prefer using it over paddles. I never did get the hang of using a keyer much
past 15-20 WPM. With the straight key, I can still send at least as fast as I
