My talk will be:
American Morse, the transition and evolution to the Continental
Code (what we hams use on CW) and a little Russian Morse with
some useful DX phrases.
I was originally licensed as a novice with the callsign
WN2BKC in Madison, NJ in 1967. I soon took the General Class tests
in New York city and became WB2BKC where I began a lifelong fascination
with CW and the National Traffic System. I have held a number
of callsigns since with my last two being VE7CTW and now K6CTW.
About 10 years ago I became fascinated with Morse (a.k.a American
Morse) and learned the code with the assistance of a great program
by Jim Farrior, W4FOK, and a 20 ohm sounder. Combining my interests
in Morse and CW with modern languages, I am now in the process
of learning Russian and Russian Morse!
