06/13/13 0400Z 7046 KHz CW (using Kent Twin Paddle)Charles was calling CW and I bit. Nice QSO. He was using a Chinese Army K5 key with a modified soft spring from a local hardware store. For a straight key, his fist was very stable and easily copied. We discussed magnetic keys and I had to admit ignorance on my part but said that I felt magnetic keys might be very efficient. IDEA: Go try one!
In any event, Charles and I chewed the rag for forty minutes. That is quite long for me and I appreciate the chance to do that -- to let my hair down as it were!
In any case, TNX to Charles - a FB QSO.
