(1 kc/s = 1 kHz) K2's will tune 6474 kHz and I believe the KX1 will cover the 12993 kHz frequency. KSM is pounding into N.W. Oregon on 6474 at this time. The code wheel sends this message repeatedly: CQ CQ CQ DE KSM KSM KSM QSX 6/12 CH3 OBS? AMVER? QRU? K CQ CQ CQ DE KSM KSM KSM QSX 6/12 CH3 OBS? AMVER? QRU? K KSM WILL FORWARD MESSAGES TO EMAIL ADDRESSES FREE OF CHARGE K Originally they really were motor driven cog wheels with notches that tripped the keying contacts. Many of the newer systems use motor driven punched paper tapes.
