Hey, Dave.

Since you worked Steve who was doing CW, I need to ask:  What keyer do you
use to send CW with the N3FJP logging software?

I'm looking for something to replace the W1GEE serial CW interface that I
have been using for a number of years, since I'm now having some problems
with it.

I also spent several hours on ten today, but the only list member I hworked
was Steve.  I seemed to have a pipeline into MN and TX, but worked all the
1's, 2,s, MD and PA, most of the 4's and 5's, 6, ID, OR, and WA in the 7's,
and OH and MI in the 8's.  I got all the 9's, but CO was too close.  I did
get AK and HI along with BA, Bu, JA, 3W1,and UA0.  I managed several
Atlantic/Caribbean islands along with several in Mexico and South America.
I worked almost all Canadian provinces.  I won't have much time tomorrow, so
that's probably it for this year.  It was lot's of fun though and the N3FJP
Ten Meter pContest rogram worked beautifully.  It's really a pleasure to
use.

73 and GL to all in the remaining hours.

Dave, W7OQ
