I maintain a calendar of on-air events for slow-speed morse code. Hopefully, this will be useful to anyone actively learning CW. Let me know if I am missing any events. Thanks!

Read how I operated 1 WATT or LESS activation using a 9 Volt / 200mah battery with a QCX Mini transceiver, @Tuftelndotnet Antenna,

Expected weird 20 meter band conditions during while doing a activation along the shores of the flooded along the US-4572

I've run into an interesting crossover:

CW (Mastodon): Content warning.
CW (Ham Radio): Morse Code.

If it wasn't a violation of standard, I'd post a CW, labeled CW, made up entirely of CW.

“This is the J-38. Not as clumsy or random as a bug*; an elegant straight key for a more civilized age.”

  • those that have developed the ability to use a bug to the degree that the code produced can't be identified as coming from a bug - I salute you!

I wanted to stop traveling with my J-38 straight key as it is a gift from a friend I don't want to damage. As a remedy, I found a miniature CW key, complete with 3.5mm jack, cable, and travel case for about 30 bucks on Amazon that turns out to be of nice quality. Hope someone else might find this useful: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJ4X24J9?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Pretty fun drive up outing with the KH1. Parked, stepped away from the car and got on the air. I worked every band with the whip (AX1 extension and 33' counterpoise for 30 and 40m). Wrapped things up with a cross-mode QSO on 40m. K6ARK touch paddles worked great!

Being in beautiful #Wiesbaden for the next couple of days attending a congress might give me the chance to activate some #SOTA summits or #POTA and #WWFF entities for a short period of time in the evening. Try to work me on #20m or #40m on a DM/HE summit. #HamRadio #hamr #SummitsOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #qrp #elecraftkx2 #morsecode

So you think that your isn't up to much and are worried you'll make a hash of it on air? CW operators WANT you on air, so just jump on in, please. Øystein LB8IJ sets a great example here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZw_gvOUi5s

Just discovered that there's a new kit available from the team that brought us the . This new kit comes in 3 versions, for 80m, 40m, or 20m. The documentation is comprehensive.

An almost Back-to-the-Future activation. I just needed a DeLorean for 88mph, a Flux Capacitor & uranium to produce 1.21 gigawatts. But I did have a for @potaspots
