[Elecraft] K3: try out CW decoder this weekend

[DOUGLAS ZWIEBEL]

OK all you "slow" CW or "no cw" ops out there.  This weekend is the
ARRL DX TEST on CW.  It's the world working USA/VE and USA/VE working
the world (but not each other).

http://www.arrl.org/contests/rules/2008/intldx.html

Outside USA/VE sends RST + power level
USA/VE sends RST + state/prov

Load your outgoing cw message into one of the K3 memories and turn on
your CW Decoder ring and the CWT function.  CW is "just another
digital mode" if you can't do it in your head at an average of 30-32
wpm.  Load your memories at QRS speeds but send them out at 25-32 wpm
(ymmv).
Get on, work lots of DX/states/prov and have fun!

BTW, got up a few minutes earlier today (0815z) and found VP6DX on
80cw.  One call with the K3 barefoot to an inverted V at 50' from NJ
put him in the log.  The bands are HOPPING!

HAVE FUN!!!!
