    RandomGram Event
    SKCC Oceanic Saunter
    SKCC Straight Key Sprint
    Firset Class Ops Bug Day


    This evening is the K1USN SST at 1600-1700 EDT ( 20:00-21:00 UTC) It's a slow speed conTest, so sprint of sorts. The idea is to work under 20WPM and not just exchange numbers in the hit and run manner but to enjoy yourself.
