Hi Jim!

I've only heard it used on CW, but then, how many run QRP on SSB? Hi hi.

Someone once thought I'd made up a strange code when I said 161, and then
didn't believe me when I told them it's the sum of 73 and 88 until they got
their calculator out. Hi hi.

73,
Dave

Well I learned something today.  I'd heard people say 72 instead of 73, but
didn't know what it meant.  As I understand it, it's used by folks running
QRP.  That was a new one on me.  Do folks use it on SSB too?  Since I mainly
work CW, I've never run into it on SSB.
