Nice catch. I did pass element 1, but I never claimed to be good at
it. In any event, I'd thought I just cut and pasted his CQ string,
but obviously I made a mistake somewhere.

But to retort --

1) The FCC doesn't administer ham radio tests any more
2) The tests are generally receiving, not sending, and
3) You don't need 100% accuracy to pass



(Wow, something actually related to policy!)
