What is SOC ?

FISTS is an international society for the preservation of Morse code
(which, if there were any justice in the world, would be called the Vail
code). Members tend to congregate 50 to 55 KHz above the bottom of the
band. You can join (can't remember the price), and you get a number
which you can exchange with other members for various forms of fame (no
fortune, unfortunately). My number is 11151. FISTS members will
usually match your speed so it's a fairly good way to get in some CW
practice if you need it.
> Is this a joke?
No. SOC is the joke. My SOC number is 633, although it doesn't seem to
matter much except in the SOC marathon, where it also doesn't seem to
matter. SOC does not do fame or fortune.
Any more questions?
