2017 ARRL Straight Key Night

01/06/2017 | NR4M

Been a ham for 37 years and this was my first SKN.  My operating had taken the path of serious contesting, so this was something very new and different for me.

Surprisingly, I found that each of my 20 Q's were as enjoyable as the next.  Seemed the common threads were CW, old gear, and an ability to rag chew.

My bug was a 1934 Vibroplex, and because I'm NOT a bug person, my apologies to all.

Was able to use a pair of my old collectable rigs; a Heathkit TX1 'Apache' and a Heathkit RX1 'Mohawk'.

Thanks for the Q's and the good memories.
