Too much caffeine == shaky soldering

I’m glad I didn’t try my hand at my second Softrock today. Instead, I decided to wire up all the programmable message buttons on my K1EL keyer (I had mounted them, but didn’t bother connecting them the last time I hooked them up). Man, my hands were jittery, I guess those two Diet Cokes really got too me. Still, finished it all, buttoned it up, and now I’ve got the keyer completely done. When my oscillator project gets completed, I’ll be able to go immediately to beaconing.

Oh, and I got my cheesecake baked for tomorrow’s brunch.
