HTC On the Air
Would you like to learn Morse Code or perfect your skills? We make both possible. Like every form of art, Morse Code, also known by its technical shorthand CW (continuous wave), requires continual practice. Besides CW, we also promote making contacts with the lowest power required (named QRP), and this, of course, in CW.
Our club call HB9HTC, and HTC members are QRV on the following dates and times:

Morse Code practice. 60 to 140 characters/min (12 to 28 words/min). At speeds higher than 100 cpm (20 wpm), almost only in plain text to allow practicing "copying in your head". Afterwards, the latest HTC club news if any is available. At the end we conduct short confirmation QSOs. Ops: HB9UH Hans and HB9DEO Robi |
