Elecraft-Free Straight Key Night

Elecraft mailing list
I want to publicly congratulate myself for operating SKN this year with only my souped up HW-16 and box-stock HG-10 VFO.  Usually I get frustrated with the boat anchors and go Elecraft at some point.
The dark K-line called, all right. 
"Isn't that chirp a bit embarassing?"  
"How long has it been since you had to listen to more than one CW signal at a time?  Not easy anymore, huh."  
"It's a tad rude to drift into another QSO, don't you think?"
"Hey, I wonder what's happening 10 KHz up?  I'd be happy to show you."
The dark K-line was always polite.  Always ready to help.  Always ready to cool off the shack.  Kind of Jeeves-like, but with a mixture of Eric and Wayne's voices.
I resisted for the first time since K3 #2545 came into my life.
