28925 - W5IDD - Greg - Hammond - LA
Amateur Extra - CW adds yet another dimension to my Ham experience and, like the broader privileges afforded me by my Extra license, working CW in a more relaxed manner, will expand my ability to contact more people with similar interests. Besides, a friend gave me a really nice Speed-X key that I'm quite fond of.

28926 - AI5QA - Lee - Bryan - TX
I'm a CW op who prefers to use a Vibroplex bug. I'm an old timer who got his first Novice in 1974 (WN1WWW) so I remember what it was like at 5wpm. I like to work slower stations to help them get the CW experience they need.

General - trying to relearn cw using straight key

Amateur Extra
CW is my preferred operating mode. I started with a straight key as a Novice, and made many contacts on a straight key. I eventually transitioned to a Vibroplex bug as my speed proficiency increased. Joining SKCC is a natural move for me and a way to help promote CW as a useful communication skill, and also a proactive activity to give back to the amateur radio community.

28929 - KK7OMR - Greg - Holbrook - AZ
CURRENT TECHNICIAN CLASS. UPGRADING TO GENERAL. LEARNED CW IN 1963, USED IT IN VIETNAM AND OTHER ASIAN COUNTRIES. GETTING BACK INTO IT. HAM RADIO WITHOUT CW MORSE CODE IS JUST CB VOICE.

General
CW is an art form and needs to be preserved and used. SKCC is an avenue for me to pursue and explore my options using a straight key only. Long live CW!

28932 - BG2LVH - Jon - Meihekou, Jilin - CHN
This is Jonathan BG2LVH,I am currently class B licensed in China. I also took the FCC exam held in Hangzhou this March, where I passed Elements 2 through 4 and got the Amateur Extra callsign AI7WZ. I work with a tiny straight key called "Black Rabbit". Being new to CW, I feel it challenging to catch up with the others in the air, and thanks to the introduction of Take(JR2IUB), I got to know about SKCC, where the people enjoy the "mechanical" way of CW that has been around for more than a century. Would love to learn about straight key for life, TU GL 73 DE BG2LVH.

I really enjoy using the hand keys to participate in contests and events, including POTA.... I came here on the recommendation of others, and I think I can learn something useful and be able to participate in short-term competitions on a regular basis

I'm new to HAM radio and learning cw. I'm very traditional in my ways and straight key is the only type that appeals to me.
