Great note Ralph.  So far I've perused both QST & On The Air.  This last magazine has CW as a theme on this issue and it’s packed with interesting info.  I plan on checking out QEX in the near future.  As you say, if you’re a member of the ARRL, you get access to all 4 publications online PLUS one publication in hardcopy form delivered to your home.  That’s a pretty good deal.

73,
Stephen (W2WF)

> High frequency (HF) radio propagation is changing for the better as we enter Solar Cycle 25. Antennas are available for most HF bands (for example, triband Yagi antennas that cover 20, 15, and 10 meters, are widely available), but some don’t include the 12 and 17 meter bands. This article presents the construction details of a dual-band Yagi antenna for 12 and 17 meters. This antenna uses a direct feed, so no additional impedance matching devices are required.

> The Top 10 Reasons to Try Morse Code

> Learning Morse code is a challenge with some big payoffs, including efficiency that leads to completed contacts in situations where other modes fail, pride in the accomplishment of learning a new skill, and the thrill of being able to communicate in a “secret language” that not many people know. If you need more enticement to join the ranks of hams who “know the code,” read The Top 10 Reasons to Try Morse Code. Read On the Air <http://arrl.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0yNDA5Mjc5JnA9MSZ1PTUyMDUyMjE2NSZsaT0yMzg2NzU2OQ/index.html>
