Congratulations Steve and Jay.
That's encouraging for everyone - and in CW too.

I'm
pleased to report the first long-distance CW-CW contact between
two
Canadian amateurs on 2200m.
The QSO was between Jay, VY1JA in
Whitehorse, Yukon Territory and myself,
VE7SL, on Mayne Island, British
Columbia. The distance between us is ~1000
miles. The contact took
place between 0650Z and 0705Z this morning. No
repeats were required
and copy was 100% at both ends. Signal reports and a
few comments were
exchanged before heading for bed.
