About Fists	There is only one requirement to join FISTS: A love of Morse code and a concern for its perpetuation What is FISTS, and what do we want to accomplish? The official story of how FISTS got its name, from our founder, Geo G3ZQS
FISTS General Upgrade	FISTS General Upgrade Project: Tens of thousands of  Novice, Techs and Tech+’s now have privileges in the CW bands  because of the licensing restructuring.  We want to encourage these hams to use their privileges and upgrade. Chuck Adams, K7QO, put the General Exam written question pool on CD in Morse code, starting out slowly and working up to about 20 wpm. It’s not a beginner CD because it doesn’t have the letter repetition, but it is excellent practice for those who know the code and want to upgrade their skills, and a good refresher for those who have been licensed a while. You may be surprised how much of the question pool topics you had forgotten about when you listen to it! To obtain your copy of this disks (mp3 files - must have mp3 disk player or computer), send $1 per disk to cover the postage and envelope and include a label with your address, if possible, to FISTS PO Box 47, Hadley MI 48440.
