Everyone is 59(9) in a contest. There are keyers out there that handle serial numbers. As one example; http://www.idiompress.com/K5.html
I am sure there are more. Signal reports only have relative value, especially in a contest. The fact that a contest station down the street with stacked beams and multiple towers can pick you up 599 +20dB, is no indicator that my low dipole can pick you up. It is as they say, all relative. 73 es gud DX Dave Wilburn NM4M David Pratt wrote: > In a recent message, Tom-N2YTF <thomastum...@yahoo.com> wrote ... >> It would be great if there was a macro you could insert into a cw >> memory that sent incremental numbers....for example, store > >> XXX 5NN TU de N2YTF > >> In M4 and have the K3 automatically send > >> 001 5NN TU de N2YTF > > and the next time M4 is sent- > > 002 5NN TU de N2YTF > > This is not 'great' at all, Tom.
