I always thought the phrase "Copy That" was a holdover from either pilot or
military lingo, much like saying "Niner" for the number 9.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] QRQ CW
I have QSOed with W4BQF at 70-90 WPM (thought it's been a few years...)
The
CW sounded fine, though don't know if Tom was running his K3 at the time.
Personally, I never use QSK. I find it annoying to have the noise pop in
between characters.
Regarding the anti-contesters, to each their own. What grates on my
nerves
is hearing the newer hams start every transmission on 2m FM with "Copy
that," the VHF version of "please copy..." :-)
