Ever since learning CW, I couldn’t wait to do an activation using my newly acquired skill in CW. It’s not a full blown activation, but I attempt to activate the National Historic Iditarod Trail US-4570 by hunting CW parks. Follow me along on my journeys in Alaska! Thanks for watching, 73

OM Jeramy on Air CW from Alaska - great job, dear friend! 73

@KL7ECoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Thank you my friend! Thanks for watching, 73

You sold me on the buddipole in one of your other videos and it's a great antenna. Thanks for that! On the FT5D you can turn on the APRS mute and you'll still receive but without the APRS noise.

@KL7ECoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Thanks my friend! Yeah I found the mute, haha. It’s really a good antenna! Thanks for watching my friend! 73

@TravelinHam 5 месяцев назад

Nice work on CW, Jeramy!!! It might just be the thing for that Alaska propagation.

@KL7ECoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Thank you my friend! I believe you are right. Not only that but it’s very addicting! Thanks for watching my friend! 73

Thanks for the P2P. I remember recognizing your callsign that day. Keep it up, you’ll be able to call CQ in no time.

Wowsers - just a few weeks and your already out doing CW !! That is truly inspiring !! I'm sure the scenery didn't hurt either !! Great job and thanks for sharing !!

@KL7ECoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Thanks my friend! I really had to push myself to be out there hunting CW parks but glad I did. Even though with all my mistakes. Actually using what I learned is helping me more than I thought. Thanks for watching! 73

@johannesmiller1849 5 месяцев назад

Hi Jeremy, from your videos I also thought you had just started learning Morse. I’m also keen to learn the code. Could you say how long you’ve been learning and how? Great videos by the way! 73, Jo - DL1JRM

@KL7ECoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

@@johannesmiller1849 Thanks my friend! I’ve been learning cw straight for about 2 months now. Every chance I get I’m listening to Morse code ninja. When I get home I send what I learnt. Let me say this is my 4th try at learning cw. I started this time copying at 20wpm and sending at 18wpm. Those were the magic numbers for me. Good luck and thanks for watching! 73

@johannesmiller1849 5 месяцев назад

Thanks a lot for the feedback, Jeremy. Congratulations and good luck for your further learning. Great videos, if you find the time pls. keep them coming. 73, Jo - DL1JRM

For those non-KL7's...the bird is the Alaska State bird...ptarmigan. They change colors in summer(brown)/Winter (white) where grouse stay brown all year. Good job Jeramy.

@KL7ECoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Thanks my friend! And delicious! 🤤 73

@K3JRZOnTheAir 5 месяцев назад

Nice work. I need to setup a bag for hiking. There are a few parks I want to hit that have no way to drive into them. Stay safe out there. 73!

@KL7ECoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Jeff! I really enjoy these kinds of activations. You will want to do it more often after the first! 73 my friend

Hello from KL4UF in Anchorage! I’d love to join you for some POTA adventures if you’re open to it.

@KL7ECoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Absolutely! Shoot me a email, Kl7ec.alaska@gmail.com

@EricZuber-z6l 5 месяцев назад

Was this a contest or? I live on the peninsula and I have never heard that many POTA stations over any period of time.

@KL7ECoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

No it’s not a contest. You can go any day or time and do a POTA activation. The program is huge. Thanks for watching, 73!
