My first CW activation

Hi,
Today I made my first SOTA CW activation on LZ/PS-006. It was not planned to be CW, but have forgotten the power supply for the IC-705 and I had only the MTR-5B as a backup rig.
The weather was not, but the activation was successful.
I would like to thank you for your patience and for the nice QSOs.

Congrats, Ivo!

Nice going !!! And the weather looks like fun. It looks like what in Colorado on “14-ers” we call, the inside of a ping-pong ball - fred kt5x

Congrats on your first CW activation! I’ve heard from a few people their first CW activation wasn’t planned, but due to missing something it was the motivation to activate. (-: I still haven’t done one, but is good encouragement as I focus again on learning… 73, James WA7JNJ

Thank you! You have to try it. It is more interesting than SSB.

So a failure brought you to an important step, not so bad. Now enjoy CW on more activations.

Congratulations on the first CW Activation! Forgetting the power supply just started a new chapter in your Sota Journey I hope you enjoy it and maybe one day I will have the pleasure of a s2s or chase you.
