Contest CW speed and a ham since 1952

joe living
Susan... great to see your post on the Elecraft reflector. We have worked each other over the years, the last time with you in Honolulu on 12 June 2010. A few years ago we chatted when you were moored in Hilo. Do you have a website so we can keep track of your comings and goings? Does the K3 perform well at sea?

Peoples:
I operate from quite a few dx spots....I have been on the air steady since 1952,,,call me old fashioned,....call me crotchedy...BUT....I never , ever answer or qso with a high speed cw station that does not slow down to my speed.

Yes I do 35wpm, but I prever 20.....sorry, had to vent my spleen somewhere.

My, My, there are a lot of lids on the air today....but then most of them do not know what lid refers to.
