The Noise Floor at my #QTH is ALWAYS BAD. Even more so when I go vertical like this morning when attempting some #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #SSB on 20 meters. Not quite as bad using #MorseCode CW @skccgroup #SKCC #QSO Party

Part of this morning's #SKCCGroup #QSO CW Party before the HEAT INDEX of 100 at 1100 EDT (1500 UTC) ran me indoors. Be careful #POTA #parksontheair activators #SKCC #MorseCode #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

Several months after receiving my application, I'm happy that issued the 20m endorsement for my Orange Canadian Maple award.

Weirdly, one has to keep checking the SKCC site: they do not notify recipients of endorsements for this award.

#AudioMo day 14:

I picked up the Zoom H5 Studio back in April, and wanted to find out whether its claims of radio frequency interference shielding have any merit. This weekend I'm participating in the monthly #SKCC #HamRadio contest, and decided to set up the recorder next to my radio to find out whether there was any interference.

Hmmm... applied for, and received the, DXC award from for working members in 10 countries. Which is nice, but it turns out that there is no actual certificate to go along with it. I wish they had publicised that fact somewhere; skccgroup.com/operating_awards would seem like the appropriate place to make that clear.

May not have been the best weekend to test newly built #Pixie #QRPp CW transceiver with solar conditions and #SKCC #WES going on.But at least Pixie #MorseCode was picked up by RBN "HOORAY" #AmateurRadio #hamradio #POTA #parksontheair

Sad to read in the #SKCC group that Ben VE1AHX is now a silent key. He was one of my first contacts on my way to Centurion and a regular during SKM and CSKM. He will be missed.

Just worked N7WI in United States Of America 🇺🇸 (Gridsquare: CN88PH / distance: 2489.2 mi) on 20m using CW #hamr #wavelog #IOTA NA-065 #cwfe #SKCC

I do enjoy the ritual of setting up my #hamradio antenna for the occasional contest; this weekend it's of course the #SKCC weekend sprint. Too bad the bands here are pretty dead. Hopefully they'll improve soon.

So far, I have 0 SKCC contacts. I know that there is the sked page. Is that the best way to find people for contacts?

I have a ham radio license, a code key, and an SKCC number, off I go...#morsecode, #skcc. #fun

Took the day off for some skiing but was able to get on the radio this morning before heading up to VT. Exchanged some SKCC numbers and got some good DX.
