There was one station who replied 599 in text, and then a sequence of dash-dot
(-.-. etc) in his exchange. Wondered if any one else saw that?
Initially I thought I had some UOS or other strangeness but when I ask for a
repeat, he came back with the same thing. Later I got to thinking he was
writing out his state in code. The dash/dot combo worked out to be the state.
Usual problem of a lot of guys without a space after their exchange. And what
seemed to be a lot more “wide” signals than what I remembered in the CQ DX.
But that CW translated into –/. thing has got to be the weirdest exchange I’ve
seen in a long time.
