Yes, Great Congrats to you, Sean!
I always remember my first QSO as well.
The other station had the letter X in the callsign, and the way I
discovered that I did not really know the letter in CW was that I had to
write the _.._ on paper and look it up afterward.  Yes, I really learned X
that morning.

Super news, and do enjoy that KX3 ---- it will serve you well!
