Hi, This is Ken Peters KO4OAT. I joined a few years back, got my tech then general licenses. I have a keen interest in QRP. I I have a YAESU FT-818ND, and "Super Antenna, and SWR meter and minor misc stuff.
I've been inactive a couple years ... life took over. But I am finally freeing up to pursue this hobby. Sadly, I've forgotten a lot ... don't use it, you lose it. But I'll review and get it all back.
In 1963 I earned a Novice license after Radio merit badge, and was CW-ing at (on a good day) 10 wpm.
I want to learn CW, and find out the best key or paddle (pluses and minuses), CW trainers etc. I also understand there is software that converts typed text to Morse code and reverse. And much more. I am ready.
I'm interested in learning all I can and would like to meet someone(s) who have the love and experience with CW, etc
On Thursday, May 15 is our meeting at Eisenhower. I'd very much like to "Elmer" i.e. meet at about 6pm and get advice and recommendations.
I'll be there at 6pm. If you may be interested in Elmering me ... just this one time, and/or for follow-ups, please send me your name so I can look you up at Eisenhower on Thursday 5/15. Or if you won't be there and are interested and willing, feel free to contact me.
and
phone is 410.292.6886 for voice and text.
I live in Collier near Eisenhower and can travel.
Please let me know if you'd like to meet and how I'll find you Thursday the 15th.
Thank you all for taking your time to read this far!
