Listen to the pile-up I had on 20m. It actually was like this all the time on any band. Imagine that for a beginner CW operator this is all a bit overwhelming. I could not do CW for longer as about 30-45 minutes, it was just too much. When I listen to it I wish it could be more smooth, I try to listen carefully but it is hard to pull a call out of the pile. Please comment if you feel I could do better. I want to learn from my mistakes.
This is also for archive purposes. I want to compare with the next PACC. Will there be a lot of progress in one year of training?
I did some CW practise as well last weekend. Partaking in the ARRL CW international contest working USA/Canada. It went very well although I only did S&P. Worked 50 in one hour on Saturday afternoon and worked another 50 early Sunday morning also in one hour. Wish I had some more time but since it was my XYL her birthday we had visitors till late in the evening. And although radio is my passion my family will always be on first place.
