[AMRadio] Cw

[K5MYJ]

I don't have any interest in the contests other than using them as a test 
tool.

I can look at the reverse beacons on non contest days and not see any 
activity from or to the PNW. But on contest days there is lots of activity.

Started making an interface box to connect my computer to my DX-60. Maybe I 
can finish it this winter.
