[Dx-qsl] C6AGU

[ALAN ZACK]

Dave, WJ2O, was doing this from 6W. Well, I hope he really meant 99 watts
and not 100 because I logged it as 99.  I had several others send NN as well
that I logged as 99 watts.

I like what a few guys do who are running 100W. They sent NN instead of ATT
or 1OO, etc. Much faster and no chance of miscommunication.

Sending ATT = 100 Sending EJ = 1 less dit than 1 but clearly was meant as 1
(hand gets tired) Put the two zeros after the one and you get 100 Happens
all the time. After 40 years you get used to it! 73?DX On 2/21/2011 1:40 PM,
