   My passion for digital started because of my military service where I was a   
   TTY operator.  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).
