I was informed in February 2024 that my article I wrote for QST last Spring is going to be in the May edition of the QST. A fun article with some ideas on CW practicing and training. I hope you enjoy it.
In the article, I needed to use call-signs to demonstrate an idea. I decided to use the call sign of my XYL's great uncle, WA6SLI -- Art Rutledge. He no longer is able to operate his superb station, but the memory of showing how amateur radio works first hand, and visits to the "Candy Store" (Ham Radio Outlet) in Burbank, CA are unforgettable. Get well Art!

About Visalia 2024 --
The itinerary is setting up nicely!
I really (really) liked the camp-out aspect last year, but I'll have to leave the van behind this time.
Meet-ups and gatherings are being formed via email -- looking forward to the opportunity to see old/new friends again for a good eye-ball QSO.
Instead of camping-down the whole way to the convention, I'll be flying in. Saves me a bit of time.
