The annual ARRL Straight Key Night (SKN[1]) returns on New Year's Eve and New
Year's Day, January 1, 0000 - 2359 UTC.

Many hams look forward to SKN as one of the highlights of their operating year.
It's not a contest, so there's no need for quick exchanges. All you need is
your favorite straight key or bug. Many participants dust off vintage radios
and keys and put them back into service each year, just for SKN. However, all
hand keys, regardless of age, are welcome.

The number of contacts you make is not important. The reward is meeting many
new friends as you get together on the air. Send[2] a list of stations
contacted and any SKN stories and photos, along with your votes for Best Fist
and Most Interesting QSO, before January 31, 2022.
