I only had time to make one QSO with W8FJB in St. Ignace, MI but it sure was fun!! As I do in my SKCC contacts, I used my Ukrainian Military key. Hopefully next year I'll have a bit more time and make a bunch more QSO's.

Sure was nice to hear 40 filled... Read More

WAS UNABLE TO MAKE ANY CONTACTS AT ALL ON THE FIRST DAY. I MUST HAVE PUT OUT A DOZEN CQ'S. IF ANYONE ANSWERED I COULDN'T HEAR THEM. PROPAGATION MUST HAVE BEEN BAD. THE NEXT DAY WAS BETTER. WITH THE LIMITED TIME I HAD TO OPERATE I MADE THREE CONTACTS BE... Read More

I always anticipate some great operating on Straight Key Night, and, as usual, SKN 2007 lived up to my expectations. While I only made 6 QSOs, all were interesting, and enjoyable. The keying chores this year were handled by my Brelco Flameproof key (fr... Read More

I worked ten stations during SKN, including one JA. It's been ten years since I put my fingers on a straight key; it reminded me of those first few weeks of Navy Morse Code School in San Diego back in the early 70's.

I had lots of fun working SKN of... Read More

For me, SKN means 160M at its finest. Nothing comes closer to oldtime Ham Radio than the pure joy of working 2000+ miles on the lowest frequencies we operate. Used a new to me TS930S that is need of some work, but it did well for this event. The Key is... Read More

Another great SKN has come and gone! As with previous SKN adventures, this one was filled with quality QSOs in lieu of the cookie cutter, hello and good-bye fare so prevalent these days. Meeting some old friends and making some new ones was the orde... Read More
