[GreenKeys] GKN QSOs

[Don Cunningham]

Don't worry about the slow typing, NIck, as long as the transmitter and 
feed line will handle the duty cycle, HI.  Many the time I've lost 
transmitters of various types during a QSO due to that, but they were 
then the easily fixed, tube types.  I doubt we will have that many 
QSO's, but should be some memorable ones from the old timers I see 
checking into this thread.  Procedure is indeed CW based.  I still throw 
in the "K", just Navy habit.
