Learn Morse Code - Lesson 8

[@thequarantinecatholic]

Thanks to your series, i copied my first word in the YL copy/sending class on Sunday - my first word was "terrible" I thought you would enjoy that. Again, YOUR series is the only one that really sticks, i know its your humor that keeps me coming back each day. On my days off, i play the same video over and over and over again, and then move on. Again, you are one awesome Elmer!!! My KX3 - can't wait to bust out some CW especially with the special filters. You rock Sir!

Awesome! You made day!!

[@yk6735]

Thank you Sir. I sm from Hong Kong. I followed your eight lessonsfor alphabets and spent 5 days. Now i picked up all the 26 alphabets. Thanks again.

[@k9kj]

Thank you for watching! Have fun!

[@dimitriosvlachos2921]

From all my efforts to learn morse code, this series of videos is by far the most successful. Thank you very much sir.

[@k9kj]

Thanks for watching! I will continue to make videos to help!

[@janiceemery2008]

I agree, I am moving on in learning CW with your CW lessons TJ, thank you so very much for providing the video lessons.

Thanks for this whole series. These videos are a great format for learning. I've managed to retain the majority of the letters. I just need the numbers and some punctuation now 😊

[@k9kj]

Wow! Matthew, thank you a ton! I'm going to start on numbers next and then punctuation and then pro signs. Look out for these in the next couple of weeks! Thank you again it's really appreciated!

@@k9kj No worries, buy yourself a beer. 🍻

Thank you for taking your time to teach us cw. I made a 3d printed iambic paddle and it works perfect. Now I started sending as well as only listening.

[@k9kj]

Fantastic! I love 3D printing stuff! Glad its working great!

Your keying an occasional mistake is very helpful for us! Thank you for the alphabet. It seems that I can dah-dit (in my mind) the words of an outgoing message much faster than I can perceive the words of one coming in (Casey At The Bat, for example). Is this the usual experience?

[@k9kj]

This is very common and natural. It will always be easier to send than it is to receive. Keep practicing and it will get better!

Came for the beeps and bloops, stayed for that sooooooooothing voice.

[@k9kj]

So funny you say that - I hate my voice and dont even review these videos before I post them - HAHA

[@daveengstrom9250]

What does "BK" mean? If they are run together sometimes....

[@k9kj]

That means back to you... Or that you are turning over the qso. Some people run it together, or put a half space between the B and the K

[@johncipolletti5611]

I learned Morse Code years ago. Today I am going to tap out an SOS here. Why? Morse code was dropped 10 years ago!!!!

[@k9kj]

Indeed... it was phased out of maritime and military communications. Right now it's seeing s resurgence in the ham radio community as a fun mode of operation with a bit of nostalgia

YOU SHOULD MEANTION THAT BEETHOVENS 5TH HAS THE SAME TUNE AS THE SOUND OF THE LETTER "V" WHICH IS "5" IN ROMAN NUMERALS. ALL VERY STRANGE.

After years of holding my Canadian Basic w Honours qual, I just received my Advanced rating. When i did my CW test we had to pass 5wpm for Basic. I venture down into the CW part of the spectrum and try to copy on 40m. This series has helped me with my nemesis letters, for some reason those are G and Y.😂 Thanks for this thorough review. VE3NAP
