Added Curaçao to my list of countries contacted via ham radio tonight. Just a brief contact in Morse code. I believe it’s my first and only international contact using Morse.

I’m going to try to get through this book in #MorseCode before I listen to the audio narration.

I was offered a free copy of the audiobook by the author. Kind of cool in a nerdy kind of way. I likely wouldn’t have paid for something like this; but who knows, maybe the stories will be interesting enough to get me practicing copying #CW enough to improve my speed a bit.

I wonder how long it will take me to get through this set of mysteries. Hmmmm…
