    What a wonderful time! Was it me, or were there more signals on the band than last year? This was my second SKN and it was a chance to fire up all the equipment that has been dormant. First to fire up? The TS 820 that I got from my father, VE3LHS (... Read More

    This was my first Straight Key Night. Although I've been licensed almost 19 years, I only got on HF regularly for the first time in September in the FISTS Get Your Feet Wet Contest. I've been an avid CW'er ever since. I wasn't sure if the SKN exchan... Read More

  • Here's most of my stuff. The HW-16 made 14 of my 17 contacts on SKN 2007. It was GIVEN to me by a friend on New Years Eve! I added the VFO. Don't you wish YOU had friends like that?

    SKN 2007 was an absolutely GREAT time. Hearing all those sigs on the bands from straight keys brought back so many memories. The bands were crowded, just like back in the 60's on the novice bands and the occasional chirp from a vintage rig here and t... Read More
