SKN WA9PWP-
I don't have any "vintage gear" to run, but did take out some of my straight
key collection to use on the air; a Russian "elektropribor", a few Brown
Bros, a Marconi Marine 365EZ, an RCAF 10A/556, a Signaling Equip LTD No. 2,
an Aussie PMG and English GPO, Italian ADDA, Swedish Army, and a JRC KY-3A.
Total of 27 contacts were made, under poor band conditions. I didn't work
any DX but I guess my keys are "DX"!
I stayed close to FISTS "watering holes" on 20 and 40. Of my 27 contacts
made in casual operating, 16 were FISTS members, and of those 7 were new to
me. It looks like SKN did bring out the FISTS!
