There is an annual tradition for many ham radio operators who take to the short-wave airways by breaking out the old gear and 'pound brass' for New Year's Day.
Here I am using a Yaesu FT-101EE that was delivered new to my Grandmother (sk) in 1977.

Even without old gear, and maybe not even a straight key- if you have the ability to tune around the CW portions of the bands, or better yet- make a contact = you will hear the soothing chirps and clicks of yesteryear.
