2016 ARRL Straight Key Night

01/30/2016 | W5RE

 I've enjoyed SKN for many years but have never sent comments.  But this year I must.  I usually use my old German Junker or the J-44 but this year is special.  My old friend Ewan, N4LMI sent me a home built key for Christmas and it was the only one I used this year.  He made it from a cedar tree he cut down and told me it's a Russian design.  I told him that after pounding brass for about 65 years, this year I'm pounding wood.  Ham radio is still fun.
