It doesn't fit in American Morse, Lenny. The tower lighting system has been changed several times since 1929, including new towers and lights. At some point, presumably fairly recently from the reports I've seen, the keying system got scrambled and no one involved noticed.

Is it truly an error or could it be American Morse? It's been flashing this out on a 30 story building since 1929. --Lenny W2BVH ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
