The 27th Annual Zombie Shuffle
THE ZOMBIE SHUFFLE is an annual afternoon/evening event for QRPers to get on the air, have some fun, and rack up a really big score in spite of what your CW or operating skills may be. It is held the Friday nearest Halloween each year and to avoid the ARRL CW Sweepstakes contest.

Achieved my DXCC 100 on CW
Hello, I saw this community has zero posts and I thought, this should be a good start. Sharing with fellow CW lovers out there.
I started my HF journey last year in August. My first (failed) attempt at CW QSO in Nov 23. Then, I gave up. Restarted CW in March this year. Around that time, I gave up FT8 and also SSB. Still work SSB but not FT*. So, yeah, I am proud of myself to have achieved this. Some folks said, oh big deal, one can achieve this over a contest weekend. Maybe they can - for me it was significant work. Next goal SKCC 100. :-) 73 de VU2TUM

"599 TU" or ragchewing? Which do you prefer and why?
As it is now, with two small kids, I don't have the time to devote to contesting. I do absolutely love going on the air after bedtime and chatting with other CW ops.
Which do you prefer?
