Re: CW Practice / Rag Chew Report and Announcement


 

Ed, FYI I tried this morning, but couldn't hear your signal in Utah, even though I saw a Utah station spotted you.? The band was very quiet here.

Conditions were good. SSN=131, SFI=205 A=7 K=1.? My next CW practice session will be early next week. Anyone is welcome. This practice is intended for operators who are new to CW or they need some CW practice. IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW POOR YOUR CW IS. Mistakes are OK. Poor fists are OK. Slow speed is OK. Really slow speed is OK. This practice is meant for you to improve your CW. I will do my best to adjust to your skill level. Operate at any power level. If several stations show up, I will operate as a round-table control station. I will do it as a round-table so everyone gets a chance to transmit. Please listen to my directions.

Details:
Date - TBD
Time - TBD
Band - TBD


How to find me - I will find a clear frequency and call CQ. Go to the Reverse Beacon Network and search for my call sign AB8DF.


That will tell you what frequency I am on. Tune your station to that frequency and if you hear me give me a call. If there is a QSO in progress, please wait for a break in the action. Then send your callsign. If I hear you, I will invite you to join the QSO and start a round-table QSO.
