I've set up several folders, titled by broad topic, in the files area. Feel free to share interesting stuff with other members by storing it here. Please follow these conventions: * Use the existing folders first. If you can't find a topic area that fits, create a new top level folder. The management reserves the right to rename top level folders according to whatever mysterious scheme they envision makes sense. * Create a folder with your callsign underneath the topic folder and store your offering in your callsign-labeled folder. Please don't store files directly in the topic folders; it makes it too hard to find stuff when there are a lot of files. * Give your file a good descriptive name. Trust me, you won't remember the title antennaibuilt.doc in six months. * In the description area, please include a pointer to the source , whether it is a magazine, book, website, or your lab notebook. It is not only important to credit sources, it is helpful to the reader. I've created folders with my callsign and put stuff in them according to these guidelines which you can use as an example. Please don't upload entire books, magazines, or commercial software to the files area. It rightly pisses off the owners and authors of that material and could get us shut down. *EDIT* (09.02.20) - Please downsize photos and PDFs before uploading them to the website to help us conserve our limited storage. In general, if a file is larger than 250KB, consider posting a link to it rather than uploading the original.

The Smithsonian just published a great article on hams using CW and the revival of CW. It profiles Steve Galchutt, WG0AT, the ‘goat’ master of SOTA who is known for bringing SOTA (summits on the air)
