WØSJS operating CW at Field Day 2010 for the St. Louis and Suburban Radio Club.

Place your mouse over a region for local time.

Over the years I have had lots of different shack configurations including a Hallicrafters SX-100/HT44 station, Kenwood 599D Twins, Kenwood TS-830s, Ten Tec Century 21, Ten Tec Triton IV, Ten Tec Scout, and Ten Tec Corsair II.

The current station is a Ten Tec Jupiter with one of the following keys & antennas:

, American Morse (main single lever paddle)
Czeck. Military Key DK-10 (main hand key)
J.H. Bunnell Steel Lever Key (main hand key)
• retro-fitted Vibroplex Vibro Keyer Cootie Key
• Whiterook MK-32 Cootie Key

• 160 m inverted L

If your interested in the Cootie (sideswiper) key and methods of keying you can visit the Sideswiper Net for details, pictures, links and more.  Look for me most often on 80, 40, 30 and 20 meters; and, CW of course!
