Early UTC a.m. @skccgroup #SKCCgroup CW #MorseCode #qso with #N9FZ Cainan. Decided to work on gaining #SKCC Centurion, Tribune, & Senator status. Likely got enough from last year for all but don't feel like going through all my logs .I start over and complete all in 2025. I need more #straightkey #Bug and #Cootie work

These are fortune tellers made for my granddaughter, Mila. One is an activity fortune teller and the other is a destiny fortune teller 🎱🔮🪄

Homebrewing a #morse key doesn’t need to be expensive. Build a key with components you have available. Be innovative. Build a #sideswiper aka a #cootie key. It’s very simple and one of the funniest key to use.

I prefer single lever #cw keying to iambic. I like that I’m not subject to keyer mode idiosyncrasies. It’s also easy to convert a single lever to a #cootie for SKCC events. When I’m in a situation where only iambic paddles are available, I just use them like a single lever.

For any #iambic ops out there, good on you (any #CW op is welcome in my book), but one of my previous CWOps advisors sent this and it’s interesting reading: https://www.morsex.com/pubs/iambicmyth.pdf
