[Elecraft] [KX3] Sideswiper skill

[Mike Markowski]

Buddy,

About taking time to master a sideswiper, same with me.  My son, 
Jonathan kb3rli (15), makes using one look easy.  So I tried recently 
and, well, I won't inflict that on anyone on the air just yet!  It's the 
first key where I can copy much faster than I can send.
