I thought you might be interested
to know that the QSY Society is holding a celebration of Samuel F.
B. Morse's birthday at his home in Poughkeepie, NY. It's a great
way to celebrate Morse and his wonderful code that we love.
Here are the details in case you want to participate, either in
person or on the air:
Morse
Day Saturday April 23
Time: 10 am to 2 pm
Place: Locust Grove, 2683 South Rd (Rt 9), Poughkeepsie, NY
Please join QSY Society at Locust Grove, home of Samuel FB
Morse, to celebrate his 231st birthday (April 27).
Lets continue
the tradition of a still viable 182 year mode of communication
technology.
We will be operating all Morse Code (CW) on the HF bands in
front of his house in Poughkeepsie on Route 9.
Bring your favorite key (or use ours), radio, and make some
contacts with us.
In previous years we've contacted Morse enthusiasts as far as
the West Coast and Europe.
The event is free and open to the public and all licensed radio
amateurs.
