Hi Rich:

CFO is the [C]hicken [F]at [O]perator's club. It's something of a little 
jab at FOC in addition to being a group of ops (mainly on 40M) who enjoy 
QRQ CW.

If I recall, it was first started my Jim (W9TO) and probably several others 
back maybe 20-25 years ago (I forget).

The CFO came from the assertion that QRQ CW ops lubricated the pinions and 
bearings of their keys/bugs/paddles with Chicken Fat!

73,
