See link to My Page 3 Morse Code Study History Google doc for my TLDR daily practice.
8/30/2023 - Processing Morserino order as of today. Supposed to be shipped from Vienna, Austria by 2 weeks. I look forward to an oscillator that I know the speed of the Farnsworth it it sending me.
8/30/2023 - My Detailed Morserino Assembly & My Build Progress Build instructions from original .pdf turned int a doc so I can make notes a personal updates to it.
8/30/23 - Bought a EEMB 3.7v 500mAh LiPo Battery w/ Molex Connector for my Morserino. The wrong one, a small 280 mAh was sent from Amazon. According to the maker a 600 mAh will drain even when off in 2 days due to circuit leaks. So getting a larger batt. from another source.
8/31/2023 - Ordered a Printed Circuit Board Clamp, 11.81" x 6.5" x 4.92" from Amazon since the one I ordered on eBay from China and tracking says supposedly arrived in the US on June 9, 23 was never delivered. It does not take 3 months to be delivered even if it was an East coast port. I have had several bad or non-deliveries from eBay. I repurchased from Amazon.
9/4/2023 - Purchased an Adafruit JST LiPo 3.7v 1200mAh Battery $9.95 and a JST PH 2-Pin Cable – Male Header 200mm pigtail connector 0.75.
9/6/2023 12:52 PM - Your Morserino order #4833 has been shipped by Free shipping (worldwide) - recommended only within Europe and North America. Fast within EU (< 15 days once shipped), outside EU up to > 40 days (depending on customs clearance), NO TRACKING - SHIPS AT YOUR OWN RISK to destinations OUTSIDE the EU!
9/6/2023 3:59 PM - Posted on Discord [3:56 PM]Paul K7VIQ #266: “My Morserino was just shipped. It says 40 days till delivery. So hopefully it will not take the entire 40 days until Oct. 16th to get it to Oregon.” Don Z--KC0DWZ MN LICW# 3982 replied: “Fear not. Mine shipped August 25 and arrived yesterday, September 5th. No tracking but final delivery was via USPS. Eight mail days, so that isn't bad. Time flies except when waiting for ham radio related delivery!” 🦥 40 days will be up to October 16th 2023 so hopefully the ham above from Discord is correct and I get it within 10 shipping days. So maybe by Sept. 20, 2023. ⏳
9/7/2023 - I record my progress of Morse practice. Page 1, Page 2, and they get long. So getting a Morserino seemed like a good time to start a fresh page: My Page 3 Morse Code Study History Posts after Sept. 6, 2023 to present
9/18/2023 - Morserino Oscillator. I did not pay for tracking, but I just got notification that: "USPS Delivery Tracking Number: UB700196045AT - Estimated Delivery on: Monday, Sep 18 - USPS Tracking® is unavailable for this product for AUSTRIA." What could it be that we're not tracking to be here on Monday the 18th. Hmmm? 🤔 That would be 12 days. UPDATE: It did come today on the 18th. :YIPPEE:
9/18/2023 My Morserino came. Now to my build it. Google.doc page.
Built on Sept. 19th
