Special Interest Groups
Feld Hell - It is an old analog system that seemingly prints out text on a "scrolling tape". Slower than PSK and RTTY, but weak signal text can usually be read even though it looks blurry. The Feld Hell Home Page provides access to free software and announces dates and times to monthly contest on a Weekly Feld Net on Thursday, 0100 UTC. (Read an article about operating Feld Hell in the Media section.)
CWOPS - This is a CW specialty group. The group sponsored weekly contests. Access to CW training aides can be found on the site.
​
SKCC - This is a site that promotes the use of CW at slow speeds. Even the most inexperienced operator is welcome. They promote a formal exchange that helps with decoding. SKCC members gather around specific frequencies, listed on their web site and monthly contests are informal affairs that are a lot of fun.
