Well, passed my element one with no problems yesterday and have been trying to
get some contacts on hf with cw. I love cw but 5wpm just isn't cutting it so I
am back to Numorse to bring up my speed. Anyone out there that tried a contact
with me, sorry. I was forever putting out QRS and still not getting it all. I
will be back though as I cannot use phone when the baby is sleeping. The light
*tick-ticking* on the straight key doesn't disturb her as much as me talking.
Thanks

Congrats on getting the ticket! I spent a lot of time in the wee hours
of the morning on the 40 meter novice band with the new daughter propped
on my crossed leg, working the key with one hand and holding the bottle
with the other. Now the daughter has two of her own and another on the way.
