New digimode tested: Feld Hell

Poor DX conditions made me try something new: found a Feld Hell CQ and answered.
My first Feld Hell QSO
Feld Hell is a Hellschreiber mode, which is in fact a much older communication mode than the PSK  modes. As with morse/CW, the communication is meant to be interpreted by humans instead of computers. When CW (at least originally, and still best) relies on human ears, Hellscreiber relies on eyes! Read more e.g. here.
