  • Got news for you. Some of us old CW operators are using CW abbreviations when text messaging. Some of my friends ask me where I got TNX-thanks, ABT-about, WX-weather, and others I use from time to time...............Use to own a Vibroplex orignial gold presentation back in the early 70's. Never should have sold it.

  • Wow, these abbreviations/codes are even more cryptic than those used by teenagers on their cellphones :P
