[SMCARA] FW: Weekend CW class

[Tom Shelton]

As of right now I have 4 people signed up.  

A couple of additional notes on the class - the only thing you'll need to bring is something to write with and something to write on - I recommend a notepad and mechanical pencil with an eraser.

This class is FREE - the only cost to you will be your time.

I'll have my go-box at the class - it has HF (TS-480) and VHF/UHF (TM-V71A) capability.  It is also fully integrated with CAT controls and Ham Radio Deluxe, so you'll have a chance to put your new skills on the air.

Aside from learning the alphabet, numbers, and punctuation, I'll also be teaching you standard CW etiquette, short-hand, cut-numbers, and anything else that will make you a good, confident CW operator.

______________________________________________________________


The class already has a few folks signed up - but there are still spaces available - remember, the first 10 to sign up get to attend.

Here's the original message:

______________________________________________________________

I have reserved the Longfellow room at the Lexington Park library for the weekend of October 18th and 19th.   There is only space for 10 people.

This will be a comprehensive introduction to Morse code with a lot of time for practice both receiving and sending code.  At the end of the class you will be comfortably copying code at 8 WPM.

Saturday will be from 9 am to 5 pm, with a break for lunch.  Sunday will be from 1 pm to 5 pm.  We can all go out for dinner afterwards (dutch treat).

Please let me know if you would like to attend.  As noted above, class size is limited to 10.
