#introduction
Welcome, @VE1KM, I hope you'll like it here!
Excellent timing for your #hamradio hibernation wakeup: The golden years of good shortwave propagation in the current sunspot cycle have just started!
If you happen to want to learn #MorseCode NOW: A group has just formed here to do it together, see #CW100days. I think you can still catch up in a few days of 2 x 30 minutes per day. They say they use "Koch method", which I recommend highly - an excellent idea if they all did, a bit dubious that's so.

#cw100days is about learning #MorseCode from scratch within 100 days. The original post that got it all started is https://mastodon.radio/@F1RUM/110043610611137675 According to it, participants use the Koch method. I.e., nothing but speed 12 wpm = 60 cpm with no additional spacing (also called 12/12 speed) from beginning to end. Add a single character at a time to the practice set when the previous are copied 90%. 100 days should be ample for all common characters. But not everybody uses Koch 🤷♂️. @KC1PYT
