I decided to sign up for the CWops CW Academy. They have small, instructor led classes that meet for an hour twice a week, for eight weeks. In addition, there is an expectation of an hour of practice sending/receiving each day, so it is pretty intense, but a lot of fun. My instructor, Joe KK5NA, makes it enjoyable and fresh.
With all that CW practice, I have radios and keyers all over the house now (bedroom, den, and of course shack). I’ve started to run out of paddles. I broke into a box that I received 7 years ago – A 100th Anniversary ARRL Commemorative Vibroplex paddle to hook up to my Flex-6600M.
