Tuesday night we have the cw qrp net. Between 9:00 and 9:30 PM Eastern on or about 3560 KC. Join us and try out that rig. If you don't have a QRP rig, call us with your KW or what-have-you. But try to turn off all the power you can and HV FN.!! (Sometimes the NCS doesn't even make it but check anyway). This is a slow speed net. Whom ever is NCS will normally slow down to the slowest check in speed.
