Hope I’m getting out.

Today’s my birthday and I want to try and get my first CW contact! My stations all packed up and I’m walking down to my local municipal park. Wish me luck!

My build’s coming right along! I’ll be installing the TCXO module next. I’m also wondering if now’s a good time to install the AGC module or if I should wait until after installing C24 right below it.

Working on T1. Nine down, thirty more turns to go!

It’s new radio day! My QCX-mini has arrived and is now waiting to be built! This will be my first radio kit, any tips from other kit builders? I guess step one is to clear a work space.

Still learning the characters. I do sessions in fifteen minute chucks with at least a five minute break between. I’ll often key back a word that’s given me trouble just to try and wrap my mind around it. #LearningMorseCode
