A hearty congrats on the CW contact, Ron!
I remember doing the same thing, and having the same feeling of absolute
elation when I re-acquired my ham ticket back in 1994, after a 23-year
absence from the hobby!
It's onward from here, and I'd love to work you on CW, perhaps someday on 40
or 80 meters.

Subject: First CW contact in over 10 years
I know it is absolutely no big deal to most of you, but I just completed my
first CW contact in over 10 years. It was on 20 meters with Terry, K8EHE in
Dublin, OH. My CW is pretty rusty, but it's coming back to me. My keyer gets
away from me once in a while, but Terry seemed to be able to figure out what
I was saying! <lol> I have to replace the plug on my paddle and track down
one broken wire, but it is all working FB now.
