#sidesweeper — Public Fediverse posts

@WS0SWV @K3LOE I had never used a #sidesweeper until a few years ago when like you I made one. I was intimidated by this mechanism and felt I didn't have the dexterity to operate. Remembering how I attacked things in my youth, I went at it like a bull in a China Cabinet. After a few months found a decent price on a used Vibroplex bug and off to the Races I went. Sorry I didn't learn to use one long ago.

I spent the day sharpening my #morsecodeskills. The best way for me is to get on the air. Mistakes and all. #amateurradio #hamradio #morsecode #cwops #cwop #straightkey #cootiekey #sidesweeper #vibroplexbug #tentec #kr50

Rainy dreary day on my off day so hunted #parksontheair instead. I've been using the #cootiekey #sidesweeper & #straightkey so much, I thought I'd better return to the paddles for awhile before I forget how to use them. Here's part of a very short #cw #morsecode #pota #qso with Steve #K5SJC #amateurradio #hamradio #vibroplex
