Some Thoughts
Back to our “try a new mode” soapbox. During one of the prior quiet cycles, I tried operating
some CW. I had not been on CW for a number of years, but got on because propagation on SSB was
non-existent . I enjoyed it and quickly got my speed up to 25 wpm or more! Look at
Page 8 of today’s MW. One record was set on 241 GHz. Another on 500 KHz.
Try a new band. Page 5 has some satellite
news and notes. Try a new band or a new mode. You will like it!
