A couple of hams local to me and I are thinking of doing a joint activation like this. I’m going to try to make some of the stub filters from a recent HRWB episode.
Thanks for the vid!
Nice activation and video
Must be nice to have livable temps outside during the summer. I won't be able to actually activate any parks until Oct. here in central TX.
The POTA Island is fun!
Agreed!
Hello Thomas- What is your best recommendation for learning morse code and how long do you think it would take to become reasonably proficient?
Great question, but a tough one to answer since I don't know what type instruction resonates best with you. I would say that if I were starting out in CW, I would join the Long Island CW Club, or CW Academy, to learn in a classroom setting with others (online, of course). Also, I would strongly encourage you to read theough the following articles on QRPer.com where we've discussed the process of learning CW: qrper.com/tag/learning-cw/
@@ThomasK4SWL thank you so much for your suggestions once I take my technician general and amateur extra Tests this Saturday. We’ll see where I end up!
Hello agn Tom well as luck would have it (Or not!) missed you on this one too!. I have been able to catch you on the air. (posted wise RBN etc) and POTA page. but when I listened ? nada. not a peep. so no Brass ring on this one either. but we'll keep praying to the RF Gods and maybe on the nest one they will bless me with some conditions to make the trip tnx fer the eforts and the video as always. 72. de Ellis WA1RKS
Prop has been so rough lately. I'm sure things will clear up for a Q soon, Ellis!
