@@KC2BKM I’d be happy to. My friend Jim WB0RLJ sent me an email to an Amazon product which is just an extension to five different 1/8” audio plugs. So I can now run 5 different paddles into one rig. Just think of it as a splitter but with 5 ends instead of 2. Email me off QRZ and I’ll gladly share the Amazon link. Super cheap too
Forrest I hope all is going good,I believe our senses including touch make us who we are ,the senses ,becomes our soul,or are minds mind,or subconscious and conscious mind and body,everyone we meet ,talk to ,listen to,see ,everything we taste smell or touch ,and hear ,these all make us who we are and determine what we think about,what we dream ,all our events ,large or small of the past all the people we meet become part of our self,,,the mind has a mind of its own Forrest,😊the past is not behind us its in front of us😊,time goes forward ,the present lags behind the past ,73 I hope to hear you again .
Wait so you can just have a conversation with a random person in Morse code or do you have to set it up with the person you want to communicate with first lol
Both! 100% random. Guys call out and people respond. The exchange can be as simple as a 20 second signal report where we inform each other how strong the signal is and maybe our location. Or an hour long conversation. I have friends I coordinate times to practice our code together. Thanks for watching!
@@JayN4GO so far I freaking love it! I can turn any of my QRP rigs into 100 watts right from my shack at home. It was a fun build and I got the ATU with it too!
Song name: Darude Sandstorm
Sand
Honestly close enough 😆
now youtube will think I'm into morse code🎉
it's like a world wide conversation.
Great video, om. Seamless transition between keys. Love it. I gotta check out the hardrock plus.
Fun kit to build and nice to turn my QRP rigs into 100 watts!! 😊
The ambiance makes this horrifying
@@MyEarsHurts it’s Darude Sandstorm not Danice Sandstorm.
Learn to love the aether
I know your not really into the tech end of things but showing us how you got all those paddles wired up like that would be interesting.

@ Awesome!thanks I will do that. Super sweet set up. I went bug crazy myself a few months back as well. Glad to see you with a bug.
Love that hard rock!
Hahahahaha....that's awesome. I didn't have the slightest idea that you were using all those paddles to work me! Super cool!

Hey Forrest did you have to do anything special to connect the KX-3 to Hardrock 50 amp?
Yes they sell a KX3/KX2 interfacing device with cables that make the amp auto switch with my rig!
How do you like that little amp ?

Ok… what was being said between all of them?
Is there a reason for multiple paddles?
Yes there is
@Florreking you gonna tell me or do ur usual and be useless?
Cue Sarah McLaughlin song...
Haha that would’ve been way funnier when I started keying 😂
