Great video Keith. I'm looking forward to making my first contact. Hopefully in the near future.
Just keep practicing it does come together
Thank you. I will keep yours in mind for when I activate a park. Much appreciated
Hi Keith, another great video for new CW operators. This is spot on with my experience since getting up the nerve to make that first contact after watching another video of yours about 3 weeks ago. Since then I have made 58 CW POTA contacts according to my hunter log on the POTA website. For those wanting to get that first contact, just follow Keith's advise in this video. From the decoding side you will need to be able to make out your call sign and the . That is really all that I could do on my first couple of contacts. I am improving but still can't make out everything that is sent my way, but that really doesn't matter at this point. I am making contacts and I am improving every day. Sometimes I will tune into a frequency where somebody is calling CQ POTA and I will follow along with the script to practice decoding what the activator is sending. This is a lot of fun and you will be hooked when you make that first contact. My goal is to be able to activate a park, but I have a long way to go with improving my copy. Thanks again Keith for another great video and 73 for now...
I am thrilled for you. I know the effort it took to take that leap and get on the air.
I needed this! I'm learning CW currently on LCWO and am monitoring POTAs from my shack. Getting on the air is still really intimidating but I feel like with this script I may give it a shot this week since it's so simple. Thank you! 73
I hope it helps the LICW trainer is free and can be found on their main page top right
@@ve3svq-theshakykey440 I've made 3 Pota Hunting contacts with your script! Really grateful you shared this it gave me some confidence to get on the air! Obviously got a ways to go with copying but the joy of some CW QSOs has been amazing! :) Thanks!
Thought I’d follow up with an update! Your script gave me the courage to get on the air. In the 2 weeks since I watched your video, I’ve hunted 61 parks in 20 different states. The feeling of getting on the air has been amazing and has given me a lot of confidence with CW. After my first 10-15 QSOs I had the script memorized and no longer needed to read off the paper. I still have a ways to go with copying but I feel like I may be able to activate a park soon. Just wanted to say thank you!
That is wonderful. I am thrilled for you. Keep hunting and enjoying CW. The other scripts will help to expand your cw skills too
Great script! Thanks for making videos like this, Keith. These kinds of videos help create more CW operators for us to communicate with.
