W5AWS Feeler Gauge Key
As Hamsters, we are always on the lookout for a better mousetrap. Specifically, a better way of sending CW. About the only way to find out what works best is to try operating with various keys, consequently I suspect that CW aficionados have several keys in their collection as I have. While riding along with Mike, KI5EGH, during the 2022 Tour de Tulsa bicycling event, when we were one unit of nine with the Tulsa Amateur Radio Club who provided SAG radio coverage of the various routes, our conversation turned to CW operation. I was intrigued by Mike’s mention of […]

THE PRESIDENT’S CORNER – May 2022
Sorry I missed the May meeting…but Jack did a great job filling in for me! Thanks Jack! The current roster on the website shows that there are 153 paid members. Most are paid through April 2023, a few are paid through 2024 and some are paid beyond that. I say this for 2 reasons. 1) You have until Field Day to pay your dues or you will be removed from the roster and your access to the website. 2) We are an active and thriving club! Some clubs would love to have half of the membership that makes up the […]
