[AMRadio] CW Contesting!

[Chris Kepus]

Bob and Don took the thoughts right out of my automatic skimming RBN SDR
driven brain!  After reading the info in the presentation that Bob posted,
it's pretty clear that the CW contest top dogs are always going to be those
with gear and set-ups described in the presentation (plus the antennas,
locations, etc.). Can't imagine being competitive otherwise. The winner is
going to be, generally, the person who has the fastest eye - mouse finger
coordination (sounds like the same profile of the winners of the internet
war games) ... at least until, as Don noted, the computer does it all.

<sigh> Better go light up the filaments on the Valiant, grab the mic, and
look for an ole buzzard conversation on 160 or 75. That'll make me feel
better. 

73,
Chris

Might as well do it on the internet and take the radio out of the equation.
Or just program the computers and go somewhere for the weekend.
