Conditions
were OK. 30 meters seemed to be better than what I
have been experiencing on 20 . SSN = 167, SFI = 162, A
= 13, K = 2.
My next CW practice session will be April
11 at 09:00 EDT / 13:00 UTC on 30 meters.?Anyone
and everyone is welcome. This practice is intended
for operators who are new to CW or they need some
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 - April 11 2025
Time - 09:00 EDT ?13:00 UTC
Band - 30 Meters
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.
