[ADXA] CW learning can be difficult - TU Scott for your input on this FT mode subject. W5JAY is a guru on FT modes.

Ahhhh San, that is a perception that not reality, hi.  Gezz you guys have seen me write on these forums.  I am a bloody idiot!  Thank you for the kind words though.  At this QTH it is mostly luck, I use Google, read in user forums, manuals, and having good Elmers to this day to nurse me along.

 

I remember when you started RTTY DXing and you blew by me in short order and I use to do quite a few RTTY contests!  Even with WSJT modes I am about 50 behind you.  Still my CW, SSB and Digital modes are slowly equalizing their totals.  

 

I do feel for the guys that got right at the DXCC Honor Roll on RTTY.  I heard of one person one away and felt sorry for him when they mixed in all the digital modes as most have a S/N advantage compared to RTTY.  

 

On the other hand I’ve seen some RTTY contesters now using 3 decoders at once.  So I am not sure about the S/N keeps one from working ATNO unless you are trying to work from here a 3A or VU7, lol.
