> Had fun going for the 15 CW stations for FLORIDA QSO PARTY. Had 8 within 30
> min
> of tuning in late Saturday night. Followed Rovers while waiting for the sweep
> with N4Q being the last one needed. Sunday was real tough, working only South
> FL stations on 20 and hearing none on 40 when I was able to get on but did
> manage to work a few new ones. Not a peep out of the North FL rovers on 20.
>
> I decided to go "old school" and used my Heath SB-303 / SB401 rig for this
> one.
> Wow, even with a CW filter, there were MANY signals coming out of the speaker
> towards the end on Saturday. And the T/R relay is just not fast enough for
> contesting! I've got the Signal/ONE CX7B set up now, it has a much better
> filter and QSK. Neither has "automation" configurable although I could send
> the CW from the computer with a little effort, but no need at my QSO levels,

> Discovered that several of the popular spotting nets didn't pass the 1x1
