I'm awaiting my licence to arrive here in Australia so I can join the ham ranks. Can take up to a month it seems :( I like you enjoy the hands on aspect of the hobby and thoroughly enjoy your creativity with your projects.
I find there is nothing better than working a project to take your mind off any stresses.
Excellent John.I'm sure you will soon master that keyer.And the Rockmite looks like a good qrp rig too.
Take a look at my latest videos.I recently had a nice qso with Mike OE5MSM and have put subtitle on so that you and others know whats going on.It's good practice to try and follow the code and read subtitles at the same time!
I had an chance to watch your latest video this morning before work. As usual, you cw skill is impressive. It is a joy to watch you use the key!
As i was viewing I was already thinking about what a great learning tool this video is since you put the text on the screen. It's a 'keeper' in my files!
@johnrob281 John,I hope to do a few more videos shortly.CW qso's at slower speeds with subtitles....Maybe to also show how a basic rubber stamp qso goes..The procedure to follow etc.
Excellent video you put together, I recommend it for anyone learning or wanting to improve their CW skills. Thanks for taking the time put the video together.
Your video is linked to my "First CW Contact" video.
As always, thanks for your comments. The weather is cooling a little here in MS and that makes for more inviting shop work. In fact, I plan on at least one perhaps two, shop related videos within the next few days.
As for the antenna, I am using the S9v...it's working well.
Very good thinking and nice job on the improvisations. Gary/KC9RUB

Sweet project and a very nice rig!
Would love to see more metal work in the future . . . always fascinated at your inventiveness and ability to salvage / recycle materials.
What were you using for an antenna?
Keep up the good work!
