[Elecraft] Elecraft Digest, Vol 255, Issue 27

[tchrme (null)]

Wayne,
    Before I retired I was a teacher of mostly 6th and 7th graders. We made telegraphs from scrap wood, pieces of a metal can, wire and a 6 volt dry cell. This started their interest in electronics. Some kids would have problems with spelling and I would have them send the word in Morse code and focus on the individual letters. Needless to say they aced the tests. We went on to wiring up old telephones and to radio and I brought in an HT to demonstrate some QSOs.. 73 Mike kf6kxg
