28709 - 7J1ATG - George - IZUNOKUNISHI - JPN
Hello - I would appreciate being allowed to join SKCC. I have been a Licenced Ham since 1968 (UK Callsign G3YTC) and soon after entered Navy College and obtained my 1st Class PMG Marine Radio Ops Licence followed by about 15 years on 23 Ships as R/O. All using Straight Keys for CW (as any other key was strictly not allowed in the Radio Rm). My interest in Ham Radio has continued to this day and I still hold my UK Callsign (now GW3YTC) plus VK4BGR and in addition to my 7J1 (Foreign Resident of Japan) I hold a fixed Stn Lic JS2PNZ. 99% of my Ham Radio activity is CW and until recently that was Straight Key only. In recent years due to very high QRN in Tokyo/Yokohama (I live in JPN now) I made a remote stn in the IZU mountains and can now enjoy Ham Radio 24/7 -but my remotes are keyed via my PC so does not meet the SKCC key requirements. However, as my first choice, I use a Straight Key when I am physically at my IZU Site.
I promise to use only a straight key for any SKCC related events. Your consideration of my application would be appreciated = 73s/George

28714 - KP4UN - Orlando - Mayaguez - PR
I was originally licensed in 1991, and I am currently an Advanced Class license holder.
I have devoted decades to the research of Puerto Rico's first telegraph line, established by Samuel Morse on March 1st, 1859. I intend to write a book on this subject after I retire (probably within the next five years).
As part of my retirement plans, I also want to relearn ham radio and Morse Code, so that I can use it regularly on the air. I still have a Nye Viking J-38 straight key with which I completed the grand total of ONE confirmed CW QSO, back in the days of paper logs.

28726 - G0VSK - Alan - Cannock - ENG
full UK license. I enjoy using a variety of keys, straight up down, vibroplex, Himound, and an old ww2 key. I also have a side swiper. I have looked for a bug key but I am left handed so gave that idea up.
I enjoy the rhythm of sending with a manual key and making qso's but I'm not into contesting.
