Here’s to good propagation, interesting new communications technology
and fun in training and learning from new hams.
Morse Code Classes
Alan Maenchen (AD6E/KH6TU) let us know his 2019 CW class started with
three Hawaii Amateurs and two from the west coast, the preferred class
size for one-on-one training. His next class begins in April. Register
early to reserve a seat.
This is an on-line video chat meeting twice a week for eight weeks for
an hour each. Exact days and time could change depending on student
availability. Since this is an internet based virtual classroom, no
commute is needed. You can do this from home. Technician class hams can
participate and practice their skills on their 80, 40, 15 and 10 M CW
allocations.
Students must practice on-line with MorseTrainer to learn characters and
numbers for an hour a day, then put them to use in an actual CW QSO. No
prior CW experience required for Level 1 classes. Levels 2 and 3
classes improve CW proficiency.
