Hello all SRARC and Rutherford County radio operators young and old.  The SRARC is sponsoring a CW contest (our first);  to promote Morse Code for all.  The start date will be March 1, 2009 thru December 25, 2009.

Rules are very simple.

1. CW only.

1. No CW electronic devices for copying code.  (Yes you gotta use your ears!!)

3.   Use hand keys, bugs, paddles for electronic keyers (no memory keyers or computers

      for sending or receiving.)  (Yes again you gotta use your hands and ears!!)

      as even for all as we can.
