Скачать или смотреть NW7US Ham Radio Nebraska Station - April 3, 2012

This is a quick look at my current "radio shack" as I have set up here in my temporary lodging, in Nebraska. I am running an Icom IC-7000 with 5 watts for CW, and 15 watts or less for JT65A digital mode (see http://NW7US.us/jt65a.html for details on this communications mode).

I enjoy Morse code, QRP (low-power communications), and JT65a digital communications on shortwave frequencies, as with these I am able to communicate with people all over the world with just the ionosphere and radio waves.

The Morse code key on the right is a particular design commissioned by the US Navy for use with SIGNAL LAMPS on ships during World War II. These keys were not used in Radio until later. This is my most favorite key, and I love straight manual keys. I don't mind bugs and paddles, but I love straight keys, especially this one.

Cheers and 73 (best regards), de (this is) NW7US (my amateur radio callsign)
