KC5IZRWho: The Amateur Radio Caravan Club (ARRC) and Jim Holston W9FFR
What: The ARCC is presenting a basic, introductory course on receiving and
sending CW via Morse Code. The instructor will be Jim Holston W9FFR
who at one time used to send CW for the ARRL.
When: 1:00 PM – 2:30 PM on Sunday the 10th, the 17th, and the 24th of February
2013
Where: Faith Lutheran Church
10000 Spain NE (between Eubank and Juan Tabo)
Why: CW is fun by itself, but CW operators enjoy more of the spectrum for
even greater Ham fun.
Other info:

o Students are asked to bring a practice key and a code practice oscillator
(CPO) or a combination rig if possible (not necessary for 1st class)
A rig with volume control and a headset would be very helpful
