One CW Question with Philippe Givet F5IYJ

Activated K-1518 (Maybury State Park) yesterday afternoon. I intended to use my IC-705 but the paddle would not work as if the key jack was bad. I switched to my back-up radio (TR-35) and completed the activation which included 5 P2P’s. Two post activation notes - 1) One is none and two is one! Thanks Vince! #VE6LK 2) The paddle issue was the result of using the wrong jack because the rubber cover somehow was rotated 180 degrees and I was plugging into the wrong jack. D’oh! #POTA
Listening but not hearing.
