Hi again,

Responses continue.  However,  an interesting thought has
come from two or three others.

Why not keep the rigs here,  and run CW practice simultaneously
on three bands;  especially on the weekends when W1AW
has discontinued CW practice!

Opinions on this thought:   "CW,  as a mode for new operators
might be more enhanced by weekend,  other hour CW practice
beyond W1AW offerings,  than just providing these rigs to
a couple of folks who "say"  they really are interested in CW".

This idea appeals to me for more than one reason:

1. All the rigs would be used frequently,

2. It would be a very interesting project to set up, I have
the antenna capability ( as long as 40 meters is one of
the bands always up,  but signals could be put our on
all other bands,  well not 160.)

3. It just might work;  that is,  really supplement the W1AW
CW practice.

4. I have been told that similar CW practice used to come from
W1NJM,  but he has given up his "labor of love."  I am not at
all familiar with what this was.  Anyone have more info of
content,  frequencies,  times offered,  etc.

5. I am really "excited" by the idea,  hi.

However,  it means I would withdraw my previous offers.

Comments on this "new"  idea,  please.

73,  Jim  KH7M
