HI folks,

AS I understood it very 73 best 73 and 73 with the apostrophe s at the
end is/was redundant.
IN its native form the number combination 73 means best regards to old
telegraphers.
WHat's the use of a shorthand, for you newbies a macro if it doesn't
cut keystrokes or letters/characters sent?  In other words, best 73
very 73 etc. are redundant.  Proper term is shown below from waht I've
always been taught.

73 de nf5b
