Happy Father's Day!!! We are pondering the idea of moving to a variation of the Amateur Logic TV format https://www.youtube.com/@AmateurlogicTv where we alternate between guest interviews and host-only episodes.

Heather AH7RF is a ham radio operator residing in Hawaii who has been participating in CWTs, which are short-duration Morse code contests. She uses an Elecraft KX2 and a CW Morse paddle, and operates about 75% portable in the beautiful islands of Hawaii. The majority of her early CWT contacts were with other KH6 CWOps members, but she has also made DX contacts in Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and California. Heather takes her ham radio to many of the beautiful beaches and mountains in her island adventures. She loves to operate with low power (QRP) when portable in the field.

Morse code! You realize the endless places you can use this tool as you grow comfortable with it.  You may eventually move from the ham radio “ham shack” to places away form the shack. Our guest, Jim KF7E has explored using Morse code in a wide number of areas since he learned it over 5 decades ago.  Join us as we here about mountaintop portable before there was Summits on the Air, park activations before there was Parks on the Air, DXpedition journeys around the globe, mobile ham radio, and more . . . ALL defined by Morse code (or CW).  

Join us as we talk about how Morse code can define YOUR ham radio journey in this episode of the All Portable Discussion Zone “AP/DZ”.
