W1SFR Torsion-Bar Key ✨ SKCC QSO ✨ Ten-Tec Triton IV

Please join me as I make an SKCC QSO exchange. I'm using my Ten-Tec Triton IV. And my brand new W1SFR key.

KEY
This key is very nice. It has a light touch, but not too light. Very comfortable.

QSO
This is a tough one. With weak sigs and QSB, I have some trouble getting the call up front. I get the call as we get into the QSO. And we repeat info as required.

In an SKCC QSO, we have to exchange 4-key pieces of information:
1. RST
2. QTH
3. Name
4. SKCC Number

We get into this QSO a little bit backwards. But, we end-up with a successful SKCC exchange.

Thank you for viewing,

73, Jim
