Michigan QRP Club CW Practice

[KA4D]

This comes by way of the QRP Amateur Radio Club International (https://qrparci.org/):

My next CW practice session will be June 10 at 17:00 EDT / 21:00 UTC on 20 meters. Anyone and everyone is welcome. These practice sessions are intended for operators who are new to CW or they need some practice. IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW POOR YOUR CW IS. Mistakes are OK. Poor fists are OK. Slow speed is OK. Really slow speed is OK. This practice is meant for you to improve your CW. I will do my best to adjust to your skill level. Operate at any power level. If several stations show up, I will operate as a round-table control station. I will do it as a round-table so everyone gets a chance to transmit. Please listen to my directions.

Details:
Date - June 10
Time - 17:00 EDT / 21:00 UTC
Band - 20 Meters

How to find me - I will find a clear frequency and call CQ. Go to the Reverse Beacon Network and search for my call sign AB8DF.

That will tell you what frequency I am on. Tune your station to that frequency and if you hear me give me a call. If there is a QSO in progress, please wait for a break in the action. Then send your call sign. If I hear you, I will invite you to join the QSO and start a round-table QSO.

Even if you don't have a QSO with Ed, you could listen.

An update, again via the QRP Amateur Radio Club International (https://qrparci.org/):

On June 12 had a CW practice session. I worked one station. I used my Elecraft K3 at 5 watts into a 100 foot sloped doublet. Conditions were poor. I switched to 40 meters and it was not any better. I want to try 40 meters tomorrow.
SSN=181, SFI=127, A=18 and K=2.
