I am sorry everyone for spamming you with my calendar invite for this event.? I intended it to be a personal reminder for me and not to invite everyone.

I will be doing another CW on the air practice
session Saturday,?25 January?at 11:00 AM Eastern Time, 16:00 UTC on 17 meters. Why 17 meters? This weekend is Winter Field Day and I do not want to interfere with it. Also VOACAP says 17 meters is going to be open to most of the US.? Anyone 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 - Saturday, January 25 2025
Time - 10:00 AM Eastern Time 16:00 UTC
Band - 17 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.
Reply to this email if you have questions.
