[SOC] The last Morse code maritime radio station in North America

[n1cck at icloud.com]

If I could send half as well with a set of paddles as DA did with that bug,
people might understand what I'm saying instead of my sounding like I have a
mouth full of rocks.  She's an example to strive for; that's for sure.  I'm
a sucker for history, though.

| The proper study of Man is anything but Man; and the most improper job of
any man, even saints (who at any rate were at least unwilling to take it
on), is bossing other men.  Not one in a million is fit for it, and least of
all those who seek the opportunity. - J. R. R. Tolkien

I'm not as pretty, but I send poetry "Kubla Khan", see

Maybe I should get bracelets like DA wears? She does a beautiful job.

She was RCA's first woman telegrapher.   She was USCG RM before that.

I could copy messages all day from her bug.
