- Discussed new counterpoise wires designed for JPC-12 antenna setup. I mentioned I used heat shrink tubing with glue lining to provide strain relief for the soldered joints.
- Working on trying to get brand new radio (TYT TH-9800 Plus) up and going, but so far, no luck. None of the buttons are working.
- Progress was made on the CW training circuit discussed last week. Circuit boards have been ordered. If all goes well then the design will be released to the public domain
Open Discussion:

- General discussion about CW
Smoke Award:

- Thanks for sharing
