> Thanks Buddy for the report, I wound up doing FaceTime with my son on the road between Arcadia, WI and Chicago, been trying to get him into Ham Radio but he’s too busy !  I do get into the North East well so I had hoped that the signal would be useable.... perhaps as time moves on?

> I would be thrilled to be part of a local CW group but there just doesn’t seem to be enough folks interested or perhaps willing to commit.  5wpm is really not hard to get to but most of the people are so afraid of making an error it keeps them from even trying....... I am not fast and will probably never get to 15wpm so I am in a position to work all the way down to 1wpm if need be as I am retired..... I just want to play CW.

> If anyone is remotely interested in CW I am willing to listen and work you and work with you to improve...... NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY ! We’ll find a way to get it done on the air...... no pressure, just for fun.

I had my selectivity down to 400 Hz and was having trouble hearing the signals. If there is interest in something like this, I would recommend that we try and do it a little closer to home. We could try some local CW contacts, on 80M or 10M.
