Great, Bill ---

That was just about the speed that challenged me and kept me hopping to copy.  If we can keep that, it will really be a big help, even though I may not get it all for a while.  But I'm beginning to heart words (a very few) rather than characters.

BTW, at the start of the QSO you heard another station with a similar call sign and responded to me, but it wasn't me.  I didn't get the call, and I couldn't get the Q-signal in mind in time before you replied.  But it wasn't me.  I just don't know who it was.

I need to get a paddle for the keyer that's built into my xcvr.  But it can wait until I can copy more efficiently -- that's what I consider the most important.  My question is -- is the speed I'm sending OK for you?

Lot of fun tonite, but I need to ice my wrist now.  The position my key is sitting is STILL uncomfortable.

See you tomorrow.
