Hi, I'm looking for suggestions for portable field Iambic paddle. I'm avoiding 3D printed paddles for the moment, like cwmorse.us What are some suggestions for paddle about $200. I'm liking the Begali Simplex Basic $219 Thanks ~ Jim

Member of the Month is Coming Soon

WVARA is more than repeaters, radios, antennas, and meetings — it’s the people who bring the club to life. Our upcoming Member of the Month feature will introduce you to some of the operators who make our amateur radio community such an interesting and welcoming place.

Each month, we’ll spotlight a WVARA member and share a little about their journey into amateur radio, their favorite parts of the hobby, current projects, operating interests, and perhaps a story or two from along the way. We’re putting the finishing touches on this new feature now, so check back soon to meet our first featured member!
