Wow you're lucky to have such great Elmer's. I was trying to think when I first met Nick and Dennis. I just don't remember now. Both are class acts!!!I have seen Dennis at a few of those shootouts. I think if anyone won those besides Dennis it was because he decided not to participate. Always great fun seeing a half a dozen guys trying to see how fast they could copy cw.73 jay..Sent from my Galaxy

Nick & Dennis went "head-to-head" in the CW Shoot Out. They Lived 10 miles apart. Best of friends.Other guys dropped out @ 40 - 45 WPM. Dennis and Nick both passed 60 WPM.The guy with the cassette tapes, conducting the contest, said "I Don't know what to do guys. That is the last of my code tapes."Dennis & Nick shook hands and called it a tie.As far as I know, That Record still Stands.---That's how I remember it.= QJ - QJ
