I went into The Fresh Market (bourgeois supermarket) today for a few things, then when I returned to my car, these were on the dash.

I feel threatened.

Somebody is firing a warning shot across the bow.

Two hammer and sickle lapel pins

I just got this pin from Amazon. LOL. There’s more on the way.

Attractive pin showing hammer-and-sickle, cccp, and maybe the Russian space shuttle

secret soviet communication device

Posted on April 16, 2021 by | 2 comments

This is one of the items from my Ukrainian package. It’s called a straight key, CW key, or Morse code key.

It’s been about 40 years since I regularly used the code. It’s time to get back in shape for those special communications. 😉

I’m sending real code in the video, but it’s sloppy because of lack of practice for so many decades.

Description:

Vintage Soviet military telegraph key. The material of the platform is Bakelite (Russian carbolite), the mechanism is steel. Used in the past in the radio bureau of the USSR Ministry of Defense.

Video of me sending code on the key
