[CW] Maybe we've had this discussion before!

Whether I am working at the bench on some project or just reading at the 
operating position, I like to �read the mail� listening to 40 or 80 meter 
CW. It amazes me that alot the time I can�t hear the other half of the QSO 
unless my filter is wider than 500 Hz. When folks were rock bound it was 
understandable but how can anyone using modern rigs ( 30 yrs or newer ) not 
know that they are 600 Hz off zero beat? Is it that they don�t understand 
zero beat, maybe they used the RIT and forgot it was set +500, maybe they 
just don�t care that they are using twice the bandwidth that they need to! 
And then they get bent out of shape when some unsuspecting ham pounds out 
QRL? on what appears to be a vacant spot on the band....  Maybe I am just 
getting old.. hi hi

73 es gud CW
