[SADXA] CW ops

[Dave Mosier]

 I would love to be on CW this weekend, but I have a family commitment to tend to so I'll have to miss out.

Re CW, yes we need to keep our fists active. I miss the days when 40m CW practically guaranteed you an answer to a CQ 24/7.

    I'll be on 6 Meters this weekend in the JUNE VHF Contest.
    CW and SSB only..........Will have the antenna toward Tucson 
    and further South many times over the 2 days.

Is anyone going to use CW this weekend?  It's a shame it's more or less 
been abandoned.  Lots of fun using CW.

Pre 2017 6 M cw during the contest weekend could get hot and heavy.  
Alas, i've called CQ below 50.100 numerous times and only hear band 
noise in response.  We need to keep our fists active.

Ned, AA7A worked some good DX this morning.  Even though i would be 
almost 90 degrees off his European beam heading he was a +18 at times.  
My 7 El was pointing at 30 deg.  Some reflections going on methinks.

Never the less it was good hearing EU stations today.  Perhaps more in 
the future.

Think CW!
