This got me thinking - with all the automation we have these days in our stations,
automatic logging, dupe checking, software generated cw, it seems to be wasted
on the contesters.  What about the poor net operators?  Can't someone 
invent a way for the rig to automatically give the temperature?  I mean, heck,
Wayne already has the temperature sensor built in.  It monitors the front panel
temperature on the K3.  Seems like Lyle could find a way to just interface it in with 
the cw keyer and it could automatically send your temperature when you 
(automatically) log in to the net..........
