Lesson 4: U & C (Plus Lessons 1-3)



Practice, Practice, Practice. Don’t get discouraged!



You can do it and CW OPS can help! (It’s like the Home Depot Motto, you can
do it and we can help).



I spent 90 minutes one night practicing and it really-really helped as I

starting to miss more and my brain was turning to mush.



The next two days it was like I had never been practicing and I could only
get the easy letters...

In this week’s edition of NewsWest we bring you our traditional segments of
Foundations of Amateur Radio and Roy’s helpline. There are reminders of
social calendar events and also a note that some events do not occur
