[Elecraft] A K3 Variation of SKN

[Dave Yarnes]

This will probably go over like a lead balloon, but I have a suggestion for 
something new/different for New Years Eve.  As most of you know, there is a 
long tradition of dragging out the hand keys and doing "Straight Key Night" 
(SKN) on New Years Eve.  I frequently drag my hand key out too, and make at 
least one or two contacts.  But to be honest with you, using a hand key only 
brings back memories of how painful using a hand key can be.

So, here's my thought.  If you don't have anything better to do on New Years 
Eve, if you aren't all that hep on using a hand key, and if you have a K3, 
how about a little activity on RTTY using CW input with your K3?  I guess we 
could do PSK31, but RTTY is easier to spot.

Anybody interested, or is this a dumb idea?
