Re: [Elecraft] keying ration control

So do my keys, Cookie, Hi! It seems to me we're seeing a rapid bifurcation of 'CW' (Morse) operators. There are those Morse operators who can send and read CW sent by hand or by keyer, and there are those who use Morse as an alternative digital mode to be encoded and decoded by machine just like

My MESCO (Manhatten Electric Supply Company) Key built circla 1910 has infinite dit-dah space ratio control. Manual of course. Willis 'Cookie' Cooke K5EWJ --- On Fri, 4/17/09, dw wrote: > From: dw > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] keying ration control > To: "Elecra

Re: [Elecraft] keying ration control
