CWONDR, another Morse/CW project // 18-7-14

  In the past years, I've been asked less and less what I'd wish for
  birthday (coming soon), probably because I've always replied "nothing I
  can think of" in recent years. This has changed, but nobody can give me
  what I wish for, because it does not exist, AFAIK.

  I want a low-power, pocket-sized CW transceiver for the 430 MHz (70 cm)
  band, and I want it for all radio amateurs who love Morse code. It
  would be kind of CW fan's cellphone, except without cells, because it's
  meant for direct contacts of course. This must be possible, but it
  looks like nobody is selling it. Therefore I've decided to start my own
  project, clumsily named [1]CWONDR as git repository. It's mainly just a
  wishlist, for now.

  In addition, after years of hesitation (procrastination?) I finally
  managed to apply for membership in the [2]Helvetia Telegraphy Club, in
  the hope of finding like-minded people, also for my other Morse project
  called [3]AMBroS which is in state of infancy since about fifteen
  years. Yeah, what a shame!

  I guess I'm starting to be old enough to sense the looming end of my
  presence on Earth, but if this fear finally gets me moving my a.. it's
  welcome! ^-^
