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! On Sat, Mar 22, 2014 at 9:08 PM, Fred Jensen <k6...@foothill.net> wrote: > Congratulations Sean!
