Straight Key Night 2014

Well, I decided to dust off the old straight key and make a few QSOs. When I plugged in to the K2, it freaked out. I guess it didn't like the mono 3.5mm connector I had on there. I have no idea how I was able to use it last time. Anyway a new cord later and I was on the air. And I made a whopping two QSOs. I feel like that's my CW quota for the year. I think I'd enjoy CW more if I could get my speed up, but it's so boring at 5wpm that I don't really feel like using it enough to get my speed up. Catch 22. It's mentally taxing too, after a QSO or too I just have to stop.
