  Got no glowplug with us in the motor home in FL, but I did bring my ancient straight key.  What time and what freq is the WVDXA event on?  If reasonably sober, you may recognize my fist.  Count me in.

    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?

      Hey Campers,


      Tonight is the FIRST Annual Straight Key/Glowbug Night event for the WVDXA.
      K8KFJ had a great idea this morning to get warmed up for ARRL SKN, so we
      wanted to share the fun.


      Just warm up the tubes and dust off the key, and join us. 9PM ET 3750kHz


      10WPM or so... Straight keys are a must, but if you don't have a glowbug,
      join in anyway.. (the freq is a rock requirement from our eBay-challenged
      Prez) [Ed. note: the Prez was W8HC}
      73,
      and see ya tonight
