._,___ Well I will have to admit I have got a New ant Mobile and Base really did not feel like Talking to anyone but Just Kerchunked a Distant Repeater to see if I was getting into it, I also think this was done more because a Lot of Hams including Myself actually had a Hard time understand the Fast CW Id . I think it is done less now that We will hear a Voice Id On a lot of Repeaters including My 224.740 , But CW Voice on My 444.750 at about 7 WPM A min some of the Old CW Hams laugh and ask why is it so Slow and I say because I know what its lol PS Most have at least done it once you know who you are , and where in the Heck did this Word KERCHUNK Originate from We all know what it means
Happy Repeater Building Don KA9QJG
