[WVDXA] WVDXA Straight Key/Glowbug Night

[W8TN - Clark]

Unless I missed it in 2005 and 2006, the "Annual" WVDXA Straight Key/Glowbug
Night event only ran one time in the inaugural year.  Although I don't
consider myself a CW Operator, I had a ball in the First "Glowbug" night.

Is there any interest in doing it again this year?

As I recall we used the brand-new WVDXA Chat page to coordinate the event.

If you don't have a straight key, Tim, KC8UHE, has been instructed in how to
make one out of bare wire and I'm sure he can pass on that knowledge.

What say you all?  Is there any interest?  Does some brave soul want to step
up to coordinate the event?


Clark, W8TN
