So where and when might we find you? Can I still use my keyer? My hand
key looks like a work of art but is so clunky even Alfred would have
rejected it. Sam is reported to have been so distraught that his
numerical dictionary was being rejected in favor of "copying by ear"
that he took to bed for several months. Sadly, it wasn't his bed, he
was a guest at a friends house. We do have a guest room, but need
advance notice should you plan to become equally distraught. More than
a day or two and we'll have to schedule a trip to Costco.
Granddaughter's track meet is canceled on Fri, I will have time.

No matter how busy I am tomorrow, I aim to make at least one QSO on this coming
Friday in honor of Samuel Morse’s birth (227 years ago!). I’ll be dusting off
my oldest hand key for the occasion, one with a leg strap and Levi’s-style
button that was used by the South African army circa WW2.
If you have an even older hand key, and you manage to get its contacts cleaned
in time for this auspicious date, please send me a photo of it. I’ll collect
the photos and post them on the Elecraft website photo gallery.
