Then read the comments at the bottom and see how cool the readers of the
list think it is..... maybe they got it wrong and Morse is cool after all :)

How could someone who doesn't count 10MHz as a real amateur band know 
anything about Morse?

You wanna have a go at RUFZ to see who can copy the highest speed, Gerry?

RUFZ is depressing.  I'm in 165th place in the old boys list and 
comprehensively trounced by 15 year old Latvian girls... :-(

I know what you mean!  If I submitted a score and was old enough to be
on the 'old boy' list (I'm not!!), I'd slot roughly about 20 places
above you..... which is not good as there would still be 140+ above me
in that section alone!!  I wonder how many would be above Gerry, or
M3OSN for that matter :)

It's interesting there is only ONE M3 on the entire list (actually an
MM3) who copied 36.2wpm.  Credit where it's due.

I agree!  We had one M3 round here who didn't have a shack at home, just 
a wee FT-857 in his car and a paddle strapped to his leg, ragchewing at 
30WPM on 40m, LOL!

Oxfam? Luxury, I can only afford t' look through window and dream about 
being rich enough t' buy clobber from Oxfam.
