Default Practice CW

Hi, I'm learning CW, and so far have not been able to tune in the Arrl
practice frequencies. I have only a 10 meter wire antenna,


To what is that 10 meter wire antenna connected? If it's a regular old HF
transceiver (typically 160m - 10m) then you can use that 10 meter wire
antenna to receive on 80 meters... and you should be able to hear W1AW on
it. ?

BTW, I'm glad you're wanting to learn CW!
