I print out the entire transcript of your videos, so I can better understand your intent. Unfortunately not everything you talk about is transcribed in the Transcript.

I would appreciate your actual sending script of your Five Modules so I can insert it into my LCWO text to CW conversion for MY learning module per you other lessons remember (IN THIS ORDER) consistency. I really appreciated your "Anatomy of a CW QSO" This makes so much sense. and should be printed out in LARGE BLOCK LETTERS and nailed on the wall of every shack, in direct line of sight of the resident OM as a REMINDER of what we "SHOULD DO" VE6LX

EXPLAIN "C C H C C" Thanks ve6lx

Excellent advice for the Newcomer and a refresher for som old timers. I would even suggest this to be written up in CW on a card in front of the new operator. Having the Script written out in BOLD letter in front of the operator may remove some of the initial operational fear. For the Old Timers it is a reminder we may not of had this guidance when we started after getting off of the ark.

So , you slowed down to a slower speed to match the other op , but you still sent the character at a faster speed . Why ?

You head copied all of that? 🤯

As someone who it 1 week into CW, I really appreciate the letter and word spacing you're using

for expert...

That was all very well explained. I think your approach of sending fast charakters with longer spacings is the definite way to go. Thank you for your time and effort!

Thanks for posting your videos, Chris. 73, Frank

Thanks, great video Chris! Pity I can't give more than one thumb up!

Wonderful video

Thank you

Hey, move over! de N3JT

Thank you

Very nice place to live

Great video. Good Life 🙏🏻

Perfect.

Beautiful place my friend! 73!

Really breathtaking! Would love to see more of that tower you’re putting up! :)

Dear Chris, very nice thank you for sharing. You have a beautiful family and home. God Bless

Just beautiful! Thank you for sharing such pleasurable scenery. You definitely put the right music to the video.

Thanks for the video, Chris. <BT> stands for “back throw” from the old days of copying on a mill. It means we’re going to a new line (Fort Devens 1961).

I don’t understand why is HW?, sent at end of every exchange?

Really love these videos! Thanks!

? Why did you end each time with, HW CPY?,?

It's a bit trickier than it looks. The main thing about iambic is learning to let the dits complete themselves instead of wacking them individually. Also the double squeeze and release making the C. You have to learn to get the keyer do most of the work and there are many who still do the dits on some letters individually.

Nice software 😊

Thank you for your wonderfully bingeable videos

Just completed Intermediate and very disapointed that head copy just not coming to me. I can work 12 wpm with a pencil but stuck there. I found my keyboard skills hold me back with the software. I don't really feel the contest software has helped, and the skills learned with LCWO are not transfering over to help with copy on air.

218!!! I'm certainly not saying that it's impossible, but for heavens sake! Is this young man a savant or did he begin at an early age? Lol. Truly amazing that the human brain can make sense of this... I can not, for the life of me, make out a single character of what was being presented. My goal of 25 wpm seems embarrassing after watching this clip. Thanks for sharing! 73 DE KN6UIZ

Great Video Chris, hpe to See more of them

I really enjoyed your video! I am in Northern Idaho (Near Spokane) so I hope to work you sometime on 40m or possibly 80m. I am practicing more and trying improve my CW skills so I appreciate your effort making videos! 73

Can a three digit city code be used for the qth? Las Vegas-LAS?

This was a lightbulb moment for me , thank-you.

What a great video sir. Serious and informative to the point. Many thanks!

No chance, even wid 0.25 speed. 73

I know all the letters and number but by the time I’ve decoded a word, the stream is two or more words ahead. Even at 7 or 8 wpm word-rate I never get a sufficient number of words to even guess the message. (Doesn’t help that I’m 76, with life-long ADHD. Very frustrating-after a year on this. So throw me as many letters as you please-35 wpm letter-rate. If you like. I’ve got ‘em.)

Really good and helpful video. TU 73 es 77

Fluent at 5 words per minute? Haven’t reached that yet-and I’ve been at this for a year. Doesn’t help that I’m 76. Oh, I can recognize individual letters/numbers sent at a letter-rate of 30 wpm but for a string of words I’m always one to two or three words behind. Of course this ruins my copy because while I’m processing a word I completely miss two or three following words-even at a word-rate of 5 wpm. (All head-copy; trying to avoid the dreaded 10 wpm “plateau.”) Also it’s difficult to practice with 5 wpm text because the ARRL Code files always include prosigns and punctuation, even in slow speed text. Who but the ARRL would include Morse for a “COMMA” in 5 words per minute code?! And apparently no one sends on-air Morse at anything close to 5 wpm. I laugh when I see the admonition for “Slow Speed Contest” participants to go no faster than 20 wpm(!). 20 words per minute is the old Extra requirement, a level which thousands of “Advanced” licensees and would be “Extras” never reached. Did you notice the Advanced Test has disappeared? General-to-Extra is much more doable than 13-to-20 wpm. I’ll just keep on with single letters drills until I conquer instant recognition-it’s going to be a while.

Christian, what is the "possible" source for the discontinued SHURR Key that you show/mention?

Excellent tutorial. Thanks a lot. De G4ETV

I have joined the Longisland CW club to go from basics to advanced in a orderly fashion and thank you for replying to my post.

When I was in the Navy in the 70s we had a TTY to Morse code converter to send traffic to subs at 5 groups per min.

This is brilliant. tnx fer posting ! I am just starting out with cw and this is just what I needed. Tnx again. 73

A few comments for what it's worth. - if I receive an RST of 599 I prob would not repeat my QTH, name or WX Rig/Ant info. I assume they are receiving clearly and could come back with "?" if anything missed. If conditions are poor or I get a sense that operator is new then I would repeat as you suggest. - after contact established I would not repeat callsigns on every over...just end transmission with <BK> or "DE VE3WNS". Would only use full callsigns on first and last transmissions or to meet regulatory requirements. These are personal techniques that still fall within the basic structure you present which is spot on! 73 de Norm VE3WNS 2728

Your dits are sooo fast .For a beginner it's a tough sent to copy. The spaces between words are good but the letters fly out like AK-47

Hi,I am confused that I can follow the text on screen while you are senting but unable to follow and write what is written off air. I find it quite discouraging not being able to copy what is being sent off air do you have any ideas to help me to get on air or pointers in how should practice. 73' s from ZL1BMA David.

I am curious as to what speed we're you sending at on this clip.?
