Sorry for waiting so long to get this into the mailbox. Would like to share
my fun of the last few weeks.
I took my Morse code test Feb 19th. I sure would have liked to pass it. I
might have been last one to pass. Unfortunately, I failed by ONE letter. Oh
well....
Another VE session was done for me the same night and I was upgraded to
General class on Friday the 23 along with 3 or 4 others locally. I only had 2 days
grace time since I passed my Element 3 test last year on Feb 25th.
Since then I have made some contacts on HF. A few on SSB and one on CW (not
pretty). And lastly of more interest to this forum, I made a RTTY one with
WA2HWJ in NY.
I am looking for some RTTY contacts from you Greenkeyers. I can work 20
meters very well thanks to an antenna tuner and 40 meters as well. I am running
about 30-40 watts power on RTTY into a fixed dipole with best direction north
and south from my location in Vermont. 60 wpm baudot only. Using a 32 ASR
with 60 wpm gears.
I dont think I can get to the west coast too well, but will try anything.
Any takers?
Again, thanks for the encouragement from all here for the past year.
