[QCWA Hotlist] Going Digital or Gone Digital?

[wa8pxl at juno.com]

Hello all,

I have been digital for years. Since 1965 when I was first licensed and
passed my CW test I was digital. Any CW op is using the "original
digital" mode. Think hard about that, it is a correct statement.

There is a Florida Army Mars operator friend of mine and QCWA member who
runs several digital nets a week. I have done the same thing. CW, PSK31,
OLIVIA, MT63, RTTY etc are all digital.

Bob, put me down as very active in digital. Any QCWA member who passed a
CW test is capable of a digital mode.

I will turn 60 in July.
