It was designed by Jim Ricks (w9to) the founder of the "cfo" group. That's where the "TO" comes from. I never had a problem with it and worked him on 40 meters quite a few times using it. Welcome aboard here on QRQCW.

No sunspots so no QSOs out here on Maui, so I decided to work on my code speed. Chuck was just setting up the website and the icw net. Lots of fun. Hope to see you soon on the air or the iCW server.
