Hi Steve,

Once a week practice isn't enough, you'll be much better off spending 20
minutes a day, or perhaps two 15 minute sessions twice a day, at the same
time each day.  It shouldn't take any more than a month if you keep a daily
schedule.  You'll never see your self progress, so just keep at it.  The
code is a learned skill and after a time you'll wonder why you ever
struggled with it.  If you start now, you should be ready to take the test
by Christmas!

If you wish, you can bring the power supply and /or rigs to the clubhouse on
a Tuesday and we can check them out.  Perhaps it is only something simple.
Or, maybe we can make it simple!  ;-)

If you have a voltmeter, you should be able to measure the output of the
power supply at 13.5 volts DC.

Subject: [K6BW] CW tutoring??


I am looking for help learning CW. I have lessons on
CD. I would be interested in anyone who wants to coach
or meet me on Tuesdays at Hamilton.

I am recovering from a personal tragedy and would like
to get my thoughts back in order. I miss being around
Amateur Radio.

My equipment suffered an power surge and I have lost
the use of my power supply. I am not sure if my VHF or
HF radios survived the surge. The problem is the fuses
in the PS did not open and the fuses in the DC input
lines for the radios show the fuses are still closed.
If anybody has any suggestions please send them my
way.

Hope everybody is enjoying there Holiday Season?
