Welcome to the group, Rich!? When I'm just listening on 40 or any band, I usually have it parked 50 kHz above the bottom, in case I can use my straight key.
I've been preoccupied with my bench lately but I give each rig a turn at monitoring.? Today, it's the B Line's turn.? I currently have half an A Line, a B Line, C Line, TR-4Cw RIT and a TR7 for HF and a TR-6 for 6m.? I also have an Elecraft K3 with a P3 and a couple of Kenwood hybrids.
73,
Steve Wedge, W1ES/4

Good Day all, I'm new here and just wanted to say Hi!
I have always wanted an old boat anchor radio since getting first licensed about 20yrs ago. I found an old Drake TR4C at an acceptable price on ebay and purchased it and have made a few contacts? CW with the rig. The radio is very nice and all that I had expected it to be. She is going off for a "full service" tune up and having a new faceplate put on since the prior owner drilled a hole it it.? When it's back, I hope to work some of you Drake to Drake CW. Do you guys have a favored calling frequency on 40?
Thanks again.
