Hi Charles, The subject of "xyl" came up on the list earlier and I started to jump in and see if there were any hams on the PD list. But now that you menton it I will have to tell you and other possible amateur radio operators that I am N4AG. I have had my license about 38 years. I was a radio operator in the U.S. Navy. I used to pride myself in being able to send good code with a straight key. I used to practice by the hour when standing watches, it helps keep one awake between midnight and four AM One year I won the straight key sending contest at the local hamfest. I also tried the 'left footed" sending contest too but could not do that very well. I still have a very nice solid brass key that a railroad man gave me, but alas no other equipment except for a couple of two meter rigs..So I hope you have fun and are able go get in there and do some brass pounding tonight. Lanier Maddux N4AG Chattanooga, Tn. (plmaddux@xxxxxxxxx)
