[CW] W6SFM On-Air BUG ROUNDUP

[Bob]

Announcing the W6SFM On-Air BUG ROUNDUP

The Samuel F. Morse Amateur Radio Club -- a CW enthusiast club based in
Sacramento, California – invites you to a special time bringing bug
operators together on the air. This 24-hour event is not a contest; rather
it is a time dedicated to celebrating our CW and Bug key heritage. In the
same spirit as ARRL's Straight Key Night, participants are encouraged to
get on the air and simply make enjoyable, conversational CW QSOs using a
Bug style key as the sending instrument. There are no points scored in this
event, and all who participate are winners.

This is an opportunity to exercise, share, and exhibit your personalized
fist. Amateur radio operators of all ages and levels of experience are
encouraged to participate. There is a very easy and quick registration form
found at https://w6sfm.com/bug-roundup/ (registration is optional). Once
you've optionally registered for the event, simply Call "CQ BR" so folks
know you are a Bug Roundup participant. Grab that bug, clean those
contacts, and let’er fly! We want to hear that “Banana Boat / Lake Erie
Swing" or that commercial KPH/WCC quality fist.

Reserve the date! The event begins on May 22nd 00:00 UTC and concludes
Sunday May 23rd 00:00 UTC. That's 5:00 PM Friday evening until Sunday 5 PM
Pacific Time

For more information, to register your station, or to help in spotting
(potentially increasing QSOs) an online chat link can be found near the
bottom of the Bug Roundup homepage located at https://w6sfm.com/bug-roundup/
(the link will go live when the roundup starts). Once the event has
concluded, optional logs may be submitted to the W6SFM through the link on
the Bug Roundup web page.

We hope to hear you on the air!

73,

Bob KA9MDP for W6SFM
