[Fists] Anyone else notice this??

[Cheryl W. Ring]

Dan,

I've noticed that when I hear a fabulous sender, I want to send as well, but 
when I hear a terrible sender, I have the same reaction - I want to send as 
well as I can (although I no longer have someone better to imitate) so 
perhaps he will get the idea to send better.  Sometimes he does, but often I 
just have to keep the QSO short because his code is so bad.  I figure if he 
is disabled in some way, others will give him good cheer and contact him for 
a while also, but if he is just perverse and sending poorly on purpose, he 
won't have dumped on me for longer than needed.  If he sends beautifully, I 
will either QSO him for as long as I can, or sign with him and continue to 
listen to his beautiful sending.  Good CW is so soothing to listen to.

One thing I've noted about my CW is that when I'm working an operator that's 
making a lot of sending mistakes, or just has a poor fist in general, I tend 
to be sloppier with sending than if I'm in contact with someone who's 
sending very accurately. And when I'm not at my best, I notice that the 
other operator makes more mistakes than he or she would likely make if I was 
sending better.
