[nrv-hams] CW vs SMS from "The Tonight Show"

[Kay Craigie]

Great fun. Chip Margelli K7JA, one of the CW ops, told me that he and his
partner sandbagged the kids by sending really slowly during the rehearsal.
That made the kids over-confident. Then the CW guys turned on the gas
during the actual show and you see what happened next. 73, Kay N3KN
