    Imre:  Chuck showed me that video before.  I like the fact that it shows him using the Graciella then switching to the board for QRQ.  Very inspirational.

    Hi Imi,

    Thank you for the call, I have heard you on the CFO net 12/20/2011, and look forward to meeting you on the air. At the moment I am finding it easier to read the faster cw than send it,  I am hoping to practise the keyboard and get my speed up,perhaps we will meet on the bands, 73 Rich G4FAD

    Hi Imi !

    Just wanted to let you know that I'm coming closer here: http://www.dxatlas.com/MorseRunner/MrScore.asp hehe :-P

    I still read from time your kind email, which always makes me smile and encourages me to keep practicing CW, dreaming to become QRQer :-)

    As of MR, next target is to start feeling 270 QSOs a feasible goal. Have no idea if I will ever make it, but I won't stop trying !


    I also see that you have a new key from UK. Looks beautiful !  I got a HST single-lever paddle one from Belarus. It has huge spacings and feels wonderful.


    73 y muchos 88 para ti,

    your MR fan,

    Vicky
