N1EU> If you do the numbers, it is not unusual to call cq (gulp) 10,000
times in a weekend contest and the silence of PTT is a
luxury I may choose over the handful of q's I might
miss from not hearing the rare out of sequence caller.
I guess you were using PTT (or Orion) when you worked me in W1BB 160 m
contest!?
I remember when TT appeared on hamradio scene and became darling of CW QSK
ops although hardware left a lot to be desired.
That was long before radios were interfaced with personall computers. But
they are now saving 5 cents on PTT as YT1NT says...
