It's the only one left in North America, and where Morse-Code once ruled the seas, this station is now the realm of hobbyists known as the "Radio Squirrels." It's located near San Francisco.

I get a monthly newsletter from them. Updates on what they are doing. Different people operating. Projects and repairs. That sort of thing. You can sign up for the newsletter at the bottom of this page:

Re: Visit America's Last Morse-Code Station
DONT FORGET, there are literally millions of individually owned and operated Amateur Radio Stations around the world.
They can use Morse code on the CW mode of transmission if they want to .
Thousands of those operators belong to various organizatons promoting the use of Morse Code on the air !
Most of us keep logbooks ( on paper or in computers), recording who we had contact with, time and dates, frequencies used and mode of tranmissioin.. Almost all of my radio conversations have used Morse Code over the last 10 years or more.
Before that my hearing was OK and I used some voice communicaions, but now I have trouble hearing speech, but the "Dahs and dits" are still heard fine.

I'm not very proficient at copying Morse Code. I sometimes DX the LW beacons. It can be rewarding. They always ID. That's all they do, in slow Morse Code.

Re: Visit America's Last Morse-Code Station
If you're interested in learning, I think this is a pretty good way. Do one audio lesson a day. In a few months, you'll be a pro at copying code:

Those NDB beacons were my first Morse practice signals when I was about 13 years old! Back in the stone age !
