Birthday Present From Vibroplex

I got very lucky the other day and happened upon a Vibroplex Bug on eBay that dates back to 1950 - the year I was born. Even more exciting is that it was placed online as a Buy It Now and I found it, probably, within a hour of the posting

The price was right and I pulled the trigger. Today, the key arrived and my goal is to be able to make QSOs with it before my birthday in February. On that day, the key and I will share a fine Jack Daniels Single Barrel Whiskey to celebrate 63 years of life.
