Jumped in a Delorean and went "Back To The Future" for some #amateurradio #hamradio CW #morsecode #qrpradio portable operating with my #heathkit #hw8 #camelback #straightkey
-
I called CQ on #cw for the first time tonight.
When I heard someone answer I was so startled that I very nearly just switched off the radio instead of working them 😂

Beautiful spring afternoon for a #amateurradio #hamradio #pota #parksontheair activation with a #straightkey with my #heathkit #hw8 CW #morsecode #qrpradio Transceiver into a #qrp #EFHW #tenntenna transformer.

This weekend, I am gonna participate in the #SKCC #WES ..
Since this is #StraightKey territory, I am gonna end call contacts with the old school "shave and a haircut" instead of just sending dit-dit.
Just cuz that was my favorite part of #MorseCode back when all I had was the #novice band on #40m.

@QuietRadioOperator1 🤔 I made a spring using this old #straightkey as a model. The spring is shaped like a safety pin. #cw #morsecode #telegraph

"Every operator develops a distinctive style of sending so that he can be recognized readily by those who work with him constantly. [...] Mr. S., a dispatcher of much experience, works daily with forty or fifty men and states that, after hearing four or five words, he can readily recognize the sender, or be sure that he is not one of his men."

It always fun to come back to the mode which got me started in #AmateurRadio #hamradio. I try not to stray too far from a #StraightKey #BencherKey #MorseCode CW #QSO during the N2J Special Event on 05292025 I like to dance with the one I came to the party with

@KE2AEQ probably more like “right on.” Something you can only do with a #straightkey

Even in unsettled 40 meter conditions, I'm amazed of the POWER of #QRP CW #MorseCode. The #YouKits #HB1B & #putikeegmini #StraightKey worked through the #QSB #QRN tonight during the @northqrp #NAQCC Sprint #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

This is a pic I shared with friends on New Year's Eve, Straight Key Night.
I've decided to keep the momentum going and go for my Centurion award with the Straight Key Century Club. If I get at least 2 QSOs a day then I'll have 100 QSOs within two months.
I started 4 days ago and I have 13 SKCC contacts. I'm getting better at straight key sending and that's been fun.
Consider joining the Straight Key Century Club. Hope to see you in my log.
