01/15/2005 | KW3U Enjoyed meeting many others with straight keys and vintage equipment.
Again this year, I used my Johnson adventurer and hq-180 rcvr, with
the large Kent key.
While all qso's were great, I liked hearing of Bart's wb2hek old
rigs, the ranger and sx101 and the interesting schurr mmk.
Also ran into a ham 1 mile away in Port Jervis NY W2TAO with a nice
fist on a Hi Mound key.
Looking forward to the 2006 event, tnx ARRL for having it.
