Thanks!
Thank you for these videos that encourage and promote something as beautiful as the CW. Every day I like this hobby more. Thank you
It's great that they do those classes. I already started with CW Academy, actually just started level 2. You really have to be committed to put in your own time between classes to practice.
I just joined the Long Island CW Club. They are great. We are starting a new class soon. I’m looking forward to it.
The "bump in the road" for most people learning is the daily practice. I express two fifteen practice sessions per day. Those that adhere to this learning scheme have few problems learning Morse. I can tell from week to week who has practiced and who has not practiced. 73 de KB8AMZ
Perfect timing! I have been thinking about learning CW and now I have an idea of how to do it! Thanks!
Thanks for the great, and encouraging, video. As Howard says, there is NO criticism. Believe me, anyone can do this. There is just one catch: you can't cheat - you need to practice. As my mentor says all the time: Practice practice practice. And from my own experience, anyone who is learning this will need to look at their progress AFTER A WEEK - don't make the mistake of beating yourself up by saying, "I can't to this". I barely ever see results in one day. But over several days it never fails.
Never get tired of Your Videos, and its always great to see you and Howard.
Glad you like them!
Josh and Howard, thank you guys so much for the video!
Thanks for watching!
Great video! I’m deep into learning now. It’s one of this year’s goals for myself. 73!
Years (and years) back, when I took my code test for my license, I broke out laughing during the test. The proctor asked if I was OK? I just shook my head yes; I was just in automatic mode writing down the code. I passed with flying colors, but to this day, I couldn't tell you what I actually copied during the test. It's time to break out the key again :) 73
Just joined today.....can’t wait to get started.
I had that "epifiny" moment when I was learning to juggle. All of a sudden it just clicked and I could do it. Hopefully, I'll have that moment as I try to learn this.
Appears to run well on Debian Linux, using Wine. I also joined the Long Island CW Club a few weeks ago, now have to get a keyer. And let me not forget, THANKS!!! Josh for ALL!!! you are doing for Amateur Radio! P.S. just wait till I get my Icom 7300, there will be BEER MONEY 73.
Once I get my licens this is my first goal....learn cw.... So thanks for video
I, too, learned code in 1955! The method was ponderous!
I have the Fansworth records, "Revolutionary New Word Method to learn Radio Code". All four records, great condition. CW is on my list to do after I finish EC-001, and get AE.
CW is my next milestone. I don't have time for a group class, self practice is going slow. But I'll get there.
I've been on and off on the morsemania app for Android, nice app.
I joined the club tnx to your videos. I also am a skcc member and can't understand why the digital crowd hang below 7050 sometimes even over top of w1aw transmissions their supposed go be on 7074?? Skcc group says that 7050 and lower is for the slow ops but they keep running ft8 or similar digital??
Nothing replaces hard work
Hey Josh, first I need to thank you for all the tutorials on EDC, the reviews on the first Ham Radio to buy. I just love watching the CZcamss. I am also interested in learning CW, Morse Code but, I am very confused as to what equipment I need to get. Per your advice, I will probably be purchasing the Yaesu FT-4X for my first Ham Radio but, since I can't use that for Morse Code, what type of equipment are we talking about. I have looked through your CZcams videos but don't see anything on this. Can you offer some advice? Thank you Josh for all you share.
When this video popped up, I thought, "Aw, I might skip this video because I am not ready tor CW." I watched it anyway, and I am glad I did. Thanks.
Thanks for watching David!
I have a speed of up to 505 word's per hour kindly suggest a suitable scheme of starting a CW Radio
How is your copy?
Get on the air. Key to what you copy at.
VMWare Fusion for Macs
Practice. Practice. Practice. It's no good if you don't follow through.
For beginners.. straight key vs paddles?
Straight key is how I got started and still use it today. After getting more comfortable with a straight key, I tried paddles and that was a bit of a challenge at the beginning. I do not recommend paddles to start with. I learned with a MFJ 557 straight key with a built in oscillator.
Straight is good so you developed dit and dah timing.
I’m learning CE now, but I asked a bunch of old hams and they all said to learn with a straight key, so that is what I will be doing.
I heard on a Dit Dit Dot FM podcast that you should learn with your less dominant hand, so you can right with your more dominant hand. The guy said it is no harder to learn with your off hand, so why not.
Good luck
Pity the UK doesn’t have an organisation like this, the time zone difference just doesn’t work🤷♂️
1:20 Chi-Ching! Yaesu coin on the pocket...
and 2’40” 😂
You just saved me, no way will I join if I have to start with a WIndows setup.
They don’t use G4FON anymore. Run what you brung
This guy makes the club seem so horrible. Its actually nice. Lots of grate teachers. I’ve never heard Howard but maybe once, probably not.. Anyway, join the club its really nice.
How does he make it sound horrible?!
