Hi, I’ve been practicing head copy for a while now. Pretty much set out to only do head copy when I started a little over 2 years ago, anyway I haven’t listened to anything slower than 20WPM when practicing for some months now. Listening to this at such a slow pace made head copy almost impossible. I’d get distracted between words. While I haven’t been on the air all that much, it’s funny, but your brain keeps processing in the background, and I’ve found my copy is improving anyway That said, while I am having a reasonable success rate with Morse Ninja’s 25-30WPM one word at a time practice, when it comes to on the air, I struggle to do much over 15WPM. When rapid fire callsigns hit me, I fall to bits, but that’s the fun of learning the code.
@@KN4YEM you can learn the letters easy enough, but learning to recognise whole words as they’re hitting you at 25WPM plus allows you to hold a conversation in a more flowing style. I can bounce around at 15WPM, which isn’t too shabby, but when things get busy, it gets challenging. Simple exchanges are fine if you’re simply sending a short form RST OP QTH or even a simple RR RST 5NN 5NN 73 TU dit dit I’m trying to build my head copy for rag chew.
Hi Chris, Here’s an 80m QSO I had with Larry WB0B that moves a little faster. It’s good to practice at differing speed, and an actual conversion is a great way to practice. 73 Lynn NG8D ruclips.net/video/33krjTvoLFo/видео.html
@@NG9D cheers Theres a video on my channel of me putting out a CQ and having Drew VK3XU come back. This is a mobile CW QSO on 40m where I’m driving home one evening A phone call came in and stuffed up the recording otherwise I would have had the full exchange. Short rag chew. I’m sending with a straight key, left handed, as we drive on the left. I’m Naturally right handed, but have been doing these mobile CW QSOs on and off for a while. While it seems challenging, it’s no more distracting than to talking with a passenger, and feels easier than using a mic. Sending is ok, receiving is a challenge as I can’t write anything down, so I’m forced to head copy while performing another unrelated task. That’s how I have been training myself to headcopy. I’ll be listening to CW while doing grocery shopping, cleaning or fixing up something in the house, or in the car driving. When I sit down with a pen and paper, I’m ok for the most at that 15-17 WPM. It’s breaking that barrier where you hear the code as words and sentences. That’s the current ongoing challenge. That said, I need to strengthen my copy of callsigns. Might start working on random number letter groups again.
ARRL provides advice and resources. www.arrl.org/learning-morse-code With daily practice, after a few weeks you will be surprised how easy it becomes; and after a few months you will be comfortable with on-the-air CW QSOs. Once you get on-the-air with a straight key and a pair of headphones, then the real fun starts! Have fun and 73 Lynn NG9D

The space between the letters is absolutely perfect for a beginner. Thank you so much.

Lookup G style for morsecode on youtube. Anyone can learn in 30minutes.

@@MidlifeRenaissanceMan Your right on that, You can go to 40m 7.040 is where the new CW Ops hangout. I don't know if theres a frequency /Bands.

Very nice job
Top Vid !!! How should I start? 5wpm and alphabet A + B for 3 days?
