Another Straight Key Night and lot's of fun and heavy QRM on 40m!
This year I put the two ARC-5's I've restored and updated over the last few months on the air for the event. They worked great.
The one on the left is a T-19/ARC-5 the 80m version, the one on the right is a BC-459-A the 40m version. In keeping with the WW-2 theme here at K2JX I used a BC-348-Q receiver and a vintage J-38 key.
Although I only made a few contacts, they were nice long rag chews.
Thanks to all and hope to see you during next years Straight Key Night ! -- K2JX
