Thank you for the look up. I have been ZL2MS since June 2004.                                                                                                              
Home station operation is from a quarter acre town section with 80m to 10m dipoles. 
I enjoy operating portable from nearby beaches with salt water takeoff directions from NW to SSE. For beach operating I use a cut to band groundplane with 8 sloping radials.
The sole rig used is a FT857D running from battery, both from home and portable.
CW ragchew is my favourite activity . DX pileups are not  for me. I tend to QRT if I get swamped and start again on a clear frequency. 25wpm is my short duration max speed. I started CW in July 2007. 
I do collect and enjoy receiving QSL cards, but I can only QSL direct with 1 IRC required for return postage.
Hope to hear you on air.
73, Peter

First Class CW Operators’ Club 75thAnniversary On-Air Celebration
To commemorate our 75th anniversary in May FOC is holding a month-long on-air event featuring more than 60 special FOC-suffix calls.  These will include GB75FOC, a special anniversary call for our club station.  (GC4FOC will be used when operating from Wales, GH4FOC from Jersey,  GN4FOC from Northern Ireland, GP4FOC from Guernsey, GS4FOC from Scotland, and GT4FOC from Isle of Man).  A list of who is on the key of each special UK call each day can be found here. There will be many other FOC calls on the air all month from outside the UK, including some exotic locations such as 4X, 5B, 5T, 7Q, A6, HZ, KH6, V3 and VQ9.
Stations will gain points for contacting any FOC member and a beautiful certificate will be presented to stations who reach certain point levels.  
15 points = Bronze, 30 points = Silver, 50 points = Gold.
QSO with an FOC member = 1 point
QSO with an FOC member lasting 10 minutes or longer = 3 points
QSO with an FOC suffix station (or M0RSE) = 5 points
QSO with GB75FOC, GC4FOC, GH4FOC, GN4FOC, GP4FOC, GS4FOC or GT4FOC = 10 points
One QSO is allowed per station per band. All bands are allowed but QSOs must be CW, of course.
Listen for FOC members calling “CQ FOC 75.”  A list of current members can be found on this web site in the “About FOC” section.
Electronic logs for the FOC 75th Anniversary Award should be submitted to: foc.75years@gmail.com. (Members need only send claimed point totals).
QSLs for GB75FOC, GC4FOC, GH4FOC, GN4FOC, GP4FOC, GS4FOC, GT4FOC and M0RSE should be sent to G3SWH: www.g3swh.org.uk.  Check www.qrz.com pages for QSL information about other "FOC" calls.

Here is a scoresheet, created by G5LP, to help track your FOC75 points.
