straight keying of ancient times- well done -professional operator is doing an exellent job - delicious music in my ears-tks 73
He's got the rythm in his blood, he would probably make a top conductor in a philharmonic orchestra.
that if he is still alive ????
Noticed that the operator takes his hand off the key between words. probably a great way to manage timing.
Rubbish. The morse is superb. The guy has been doing this for years. Oh, and I do the same thing sometimes to help ensure spacing.
@@daveperry7719 so rubbish or superb? I don't understand....
@@londonnight937 I assume some posted a negative comment about the operators morse code - which has been deleted after my comment. Just for clarification the ZLW ops morse is excellent.
Nope, just a habbit, I do the same in my straightkey QSO's as a hamoperator. I am also an ex merchant navy radio-operator .The operator of ZLW is doing just fine vy 73 fm PA5ABW
That man is a musician 😊 He's got the rhythm. Perfect timing. Easy to read. Thanks for sharing
ZE BUCETA!!

Sure do miss that form of Communications, but I guess time marches on. It seemed like such a Beautiful Language!
Jim Coulter I love Morse, still my favourite mode of comms on hf bands
Jim Coulter ex GBTT QE2. Loved working WOO in Pennsylvania on way in to NY or down the East coast heading towards Miami/Caribbean
Can you believe this was nearly 30 years ago
Peter Baird, you haven't changed a bit! Nice job mate. Megan Frith
it was an end of era. we could have kept the telegraph lines and maritime lines running. but anyway states sometimes thinks in terms of money.
great video
Hallucinant de tranmetttre et recevoir a cette vitesse !!!!!!! 73 a tous de marc
I joined the Malaysian Navy in the early 80s as a radio operator and was on the tactical division
Thirty years ago. Nice and smooth.

The American Navy began to call the wireless the radiotelegraph.
The British still use the older term "wireless."
So what happened then? Did the Taupo station take over, as announced in the message?
Naw, they went Digital, no class at all, now all the Banana Boat swings are gone!
As a Coastie, we always enjoyed New York Coast Guard Radio NMY when the SS France the the Queen Mary came to town with their nice call signs! FNTT and GBSS forever a nice Tune!
@@jimcoulter5877 The Queen Mary & the Queen Elizabeth both had C/S GBTT. First Q Mary then Q Lizzie.
GBTT has a better swing than GBSS 😁
NMG '70 - '73. What hath God wrought?
yes
PJB absolute Gentleman and Legend, all other comments are redundant :) BZ Pete
Sounds like a hipster beat to me... awesome!
That is a Marconi 365 FZ straight key
It was radio on a human scale. Behind every manipulator there was a man or a woman. Radio was the third dimension of the night.
these videos make me cry. they killed an era and a professon, and i am not sure the world became a better place for it, or whether more sailors escape tragedy without the lifelines and human touch from ship to shore.

It was just their going away message. Sure wish they were still around! I miss 500 KC at night time with all the call signs from so many parts of the Globe! We could always tell the Russian vessels, their transmitters were very unstable and the tone would change as the vessel was in the storms.I sent a message to a Coast Guard Cutter in Alaska and got the old Dit Dit on 500 KC from a Russian trawler. Funny, we never saw any fishing Nets. LOL
nice operator.
wow i cant read it anymore but during my time as radio operator this is only click ...i need practice now hahaha ..
How can you forget it, it is another Language you can just copy in your head.
@@jimcoulter5877 It's very far from a natural language, you don't learn the sounds, only the rythm (that's why you can use morse with light or by blinking your eyes), this is why you have to maintain your skills more often than a natural language.
Will never forget , so xctg .... missed my morse keyer then used to pump up by resting my four fingers on the edge of the table , let the thumb free and start sending my own message thru my imagination ... 13 on this stuff out of 24 seagoing years .... missed those days

That's easy for you to say, mate!
He invented Darude sandstorm

lol! He made a few mistakes!
Real CW ops use straight keys
No. Real CW ops use automatic and semi automatic keys where the
throughput of information
Is faster for given accuracy.
that looks to me like a lambic key, he's not even pressing down on it.
Look again. The camera zooms in fir a full screen close up of the key towards the end of the video. Straight key operated with great style!!
Sloppy CW.....
