[bars] Straight Key Night starts Friday at 7 PM - Who will be on from BARS?

[hgcsenior at gmail.com]

You’ve got the spirit Larry.  I’ll be on with my 44 year old Ten Tec Triton IV, and my 100 brass key made by Signal Electric Mfg., Menominee, MI., which was only 42 years new when I started using it in HS.  40 and 80 have been excellent and DX during dark hours.  

 

73,

Henry, WA1VAB

I hope to hear everyone on SKN tonight starting at 7pm. 40 and 80 are good places to be. 

 

73 and ring in the new year with some straight key cw!

Never done Straight Key Night (SKN)  before?  
SKN is a 24 Hour period starting at 7 PM Friday through 7 PM Saturday.  Operate as much or as little as you wish.  Send ARRL a list
of your contacts and vote for best fist, best contact.    

Friday night starting at 7 is usually the busiest time.  All authorized Amateur frequencies, but activity has traditionally been
centered on the HF bands.  Most activity will probably be on 80/40/20/15/10 .  

Work anybody including DX. 
Call or answer a CQ SKN. 

Want some inspiration ahead of time? 
Read about earlier SKN's by going  to http://www.arrl.org/contest-results-articles and select SKN for a particular year.  

How many BARS Folks plan to be on?
