Our Slow CW Net
This CW net meets on the first Monday evening of the month, at 1930 hrs (local time) on 28.120 MHz. The purpose of the net is to help us all improve our ability to send and
receive morse code (called CW for Continuous Wave). Net Control is usually Don VE3DQN. The net is very informal and tolerant of all types of
straight key sending and receiving at relatively slow speeds. Errors are welcome.
On other Mondays, at the same time and on the same frequency, we encourage you to meet up with other operators who wish to practice their CW and chat with one another. If you do not hear anyone on frequency, do not hesitate to call CQ. Everyone is welcome.
