Re-learning #CW from the beginning, again, let's see if this time my reading capacity finally appears T•T
I managed to get my SO as a learning partner, he says it's having fun! (And learning at a faster pace than me ^•^')

@vfrmedia @gettie Point is that #Telco regulations stems from #Telegraphy and #Postal operations, and whilst there are legitimate reasons for #regulators to disconnect phone lines (otherwise #robocalling and #SMS-#Spam would be even more rampant than #eMail-#Spamming!)
That's why any "#secure communications" treats it as a hostile network and not to be trusted!

A couple of weeks back I've had a #telegraphy QSO in #morsecode with the Cap San Diego in #Hamburg. It is a cargo ship from the early 1960s that has been turned into a museum. In its radio operation room a group of former maritime radio operators have set up a amateur radio station.
In the QSO I've been invited so today I paid a visit to the ship and the station. (1/2)
@quixoticgeek Porthcurno museum of telecoms and telegraphy, in the old Cable & Wireless technical college. Bit out of your way but well worth a visit if you’re ever in the area.
Pardon the noise! 🚧 I decided it was time for a hard reset. I’ve wiped the slate clean and am rebuilding the site (https://dg5cw.darc.de/) from the ground up. 'Morse News' is already live, but the rest is currently under construction. Stay tuned—things are going to be changing fast...
