The EUCW QRS Activity Week has started!
Brush the cobwebs off that key, sip whatever fortifies your constitution & get on air with some dits & dahs. Doesn't matter what speed you're at...search for members of any of the main CW clubs and I'm confident they will happily work you.

As the year draws to a close, we may find we didn't become the CW ace we planned at the start of 2021. Let's renew our vows to become CW heroes in 2022 and up the game by learning to head copy!

EU #lidscw operators looking for a solid QRS fist should keep an ear out for Helge, LB4MI…he started learning in January this year and was an absolute pleasure to have a QSO with tonight.

Don't forget, the Giving Back Program is looking for patient Ops to get on air ~7pm local to send some relaxed (QRS) calls. We look like we could do with a few more European stations so take a look at what it's about and sign up. QRS Fists most welcome.
