[Elecraft] Slow Code Watering Holes?

[wl7m at cqmail.net]

Steve,

Another fellow mentioned the Slow Key Century Club, SKCC.  You can find their
listening frequencies at their website http://www.skccgroup.com.  They also
have a Yahoo Group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/skcc/ .

SKCC is a group of hams who have fun using "manual" keying, i.e., stright keys,
cootie keys (sideswipers) and bugs.  In addition to the FISTS and Novice
frequenices, it's a great way to find some slow speed QSOs...

73,
John - WL7M
SKCC #2156

> 20+ wpm CW that most Field Day operators were running simply
> overwhelmed them. Nevertheless, they are interested in improving
> their overall on the air proficiency in CW.
