I reverted to left-handed printing as soon as I hit middle school. While there, my new found Elmer [a leftie] told me "We will learn to send with our right hands so we can keep a legible log with our lefts." In those days, the FCC required you to make a log entry every time you transmitted ... anything, regardless of whether or not it resulted in a Q.
I normally paddle right to this day, although I can easily paddle left too. My paddle is standard, dits on the thumb. I cannot write right-handed however. The ability to change the paddle config in Elecraft rigs has been more of a usable feature for me than one would think. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2011 Cal QSO Party 1-2 Oct 2011 - www.cqp.org ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
