Yup, it's my fault..

I'm the guy who created this network. We hams have as diverse ideas about how to communicate as we do about which rigs and antennas work best. The hope is that this will become a central place where everyone in New Mexico who loves our hobby can congregate and share.

Join us. Create your own profile. Write a blog post. Start a discussion or a group. Most of all, tell us how we can make this more useful for you.

Ultimately there will probably be a more robust and more "official" location that will be the central resource for amateur radio in New Mexico. But until that becomes a reality, let's experiment here!

Thanks Scott. You sure are creative. Should have had you in our company, might have been living a little higher on the hog now.

CW in real life

When I wrote this post about the Japanese creating a Morse device as a way to quickly input Twitter content, it got me to thinking...
