Who brings a Bug on a Summit FA? K6ARK Does! #hamradio #summitsontheair #sota #vibroplex
There's something nostalgic about #TenTec Rigs and a #virboplexBug #Vibroplex. With some TLC after 40 yrs. this #OmniD is still going strong. Thanks Alan #W2AEW @w2aew for all you do for the #AmateurRadio #HamRadio community. CW #MorseCode #POTA #parksontheair
F4JWJ, PierreI discovered 4 things today :
1) Using a #CW bug is not easy.
2) But setting a bug is easy once you understand what to do, and in what order.
3) Adding weight to reduce the speed also make the adjustment slightly more difficult.
4) My first impression is that the #Vibroplex #6 "Lightning" (1950) is incredibly smooth.
Smoother than the Japanese Hi-Mound "BK-100" (2 of them, of different vintage) and the French "Vibro Mors".
Having not use my CW #MorseCode #Vibroplex BUG in almost a year, my last 15 QSOs from my shack have been with it exclusively. Like this #AmateurRadio #hamradio #10m #DX to Chile from Kentucky-USA with #CE2SV Dale
Mother Nature has paused the Early Bird CW #MorseCode #POTA #parksontheair activators today. I haven't use my #Vibroplex Bug in almost a year so decided to see who's awake this a.m. #AmateurRadio #hamradio
