Being at the receiver site I could DX the bands on the night       watch with the spare receiver and TTY. I got good at it and was one of the       few that was able to make a weekly sked with a military station in in the       Netherland Antillies. I was always facinated by the mechanical wrorkings of       the teleype. When I finally got into ham radio in 1979 I got a Model 19 and       a Klienschmidt tape puncher. Made calling CQ and having tapes for contests       easy. Lots of "chad" in everthing in the room because it was not a chadless       tape puncher. (When one of the local DXers complained that he needed "Chad"       I mailed him some).                      -=> Al Kaiser n1api@cox.net <=-              The best I can do for now...              Al Kaiser - Meriden, CT, 18-Nov-2017 at 10:23.       Fido : 1:142/926 - Internet : n1api@cox.net              .!.
