I know. We use this key in the NRC for any visitors who would like to try sending their names in cw. They are really good

That is a really nice key. We have one at the NRC and it has a really nice action

Congratulations. I jumped onto the scrapheap a year ago. There are a lot of interesting people on the heap. Also you are just as busy as you want to be unless the station manager is watching!

Looks very neat and it should keep that nasty noise out.

Just practise I think. I returned to hobby after a long break. My first cw contact was a bit of a shambles. It gets better and then becomes fun to do. It's a really human form of communication and I love it. Keep up the good work

Hello Gareth. No I don't think so. Have only recently returned to the hobby. Entirely possible but I have no evidence that my father G8vf knew him. Bit tenuous that!

Yep. I went for the M&P cable and plugs. They are expensive BUT... are very straightforward to fit and weather resistant. After years of fiddling about with cr*ppy cheap connectors and cable, I have made the astonishing discovery that if you buy decent stuff it just works!
