This is great stuff. Love the 4b, I have one as well. I was lucky to get one of the first batch of the new 3b coming soon. Do a lot of POTA Hunting and hopefully will do my first activation soon. 73, JB KA9MIC.
@@KI5GBQ hahah! I got my qmx setup, battery , coax, radio, speaker , keyer , EFHW, in a small bag 22x28x7 cm. Gonna try to pack it as small as i can. 73’s!!
Yeah that would have been a pretty short hop from the lake to Yukon. I’ll be at the Salt Plains over the weekend. I might have to try 40m or 80m to get some local contacts. 73
Hi. Learning CW. Slow but steady progress. How fast are you sending, and how long did it take you to get to that proficiency? Other than daily practice, what is one tip you would recommend to improve CW skills? Thanks, John KJ7OIB
Hey John I am running around 20 wpm. I started learning Morse code around June of 2022 and it took around 6 months before i felt like i could do an activation running about 15 wpm. The best thing i have done is just listen to code when I'm driving and try to head copy. Ninja Morse has a great collection of podcasts that i listen to when i am on the road. Good luck and hang in there. It is worth learning. 73 KI5GBQ Russ
