That was amazing. I learn morse code in Cuba when i was in the army and i was the best of my class. When they found out i was coming to the US, they took me out of communications and never allowed to do morse code again. I'd never forgot it, although i almost never practice it. It's so good to hear it the sound again. Thanks for your video.
Juan, you should write an autobiography. I'd read it! One of my Spanish professors has a bullet wound in his calf because he fought against Castro's army. One of his friends was a part of the rebel army waiting for the Marines to land on the island to begin a battle/war, but Kennedy called off the invasion. I believe this was the Bay of Pigs Invasion. I wish he would write an autobiogrpahy, too.
If you haven’t already, you should get into Amateur Radio! Also known as Ham Radio! I’ve been doing it since 2015, although it’s just been recently that I’ve used Morse Code, or CW (Continuous Wave) mode.

Hi guys, thanks for your comments. I have been enjoying Ham Radio for over 20 years now and I love CW. I belong to FISTS for years. My Japanese callsign is JJ8KGZ and this is a video I took with my CW buddy, Isao JQ2SFZ. He and I continued SKED QSOs every morning for 4 years. The Key is a Begali Sculpture and I have other keys including straight one.

Thanks. It took about 4 years to catch the Morse-code without writing down and send with the speed of 30WPM. I think this is about 25 WPM. Initially I learned ABCD...and numbers. It was 10 years ago. Since then I had always written down what I heard but wanted to improve my "head copy". So I decided not to use pen when I operate morse communication. Oh, only callsign and his name I take memo while QSO. It's fun and I love it.
Morse code really becomes fun when you can read it in your head......I write down the "important" stuff to put in my logbook, and just listen to the rest.
I learned Morse in the Army, 40 years ago, where we copied everything by hand. I'm trying to "head copy" and barely hanging on! Good clean sound, no QRN or QRM. I'll be back several times until I can get it without a pad and pencil
This is what I managed to get from the beginning: r JJ8KGZ de JQ2SFZ (Roger JJ8KGZ from JQ2SFZ) ge dr leo om ur 579 (Good evening dear Leo "old man", you are [transmitting at] 579) 57 nfbbk (No idea what Isao is saying here) This stuff is really hard to transcribe. Amazing how you can do it so quickly!
A great way to get practice with copying to paper (to computer) is by handling message traffic on HF, via a traffic net. Not sure where you are, but I would imagine that you can find slow and fast nets... we have the Texas Slow Net, which runs about 10-12 wpm... the Tx Traffic Net (TTN) which runs about 15 wpm, and the "upper echelon" nets like Fifth Region Net (RN5) and the Central Area Net which run pretty much at whatever speed everyone can copy-- as these are veteran traffic handlers who have a lot of experience. Many of them know each other or have worked each other often, so they kind of have a system. Thus, these ops will often bust 20-25 wpm or even more. I was the Net Manager for TTN at one time many years ago, and took slots on RN5 a few nights a week, so there was plenty of opportunity for practice! As for the meaning of "57 nfbbk"... he is repeating the signal report (579), using the letter N as a "cut form" of the number 9. 57N is the same as 579, "Temp is 59 deg 5N deg" means 59 degrees... 59 degrees. So-- "579. Fine business (very good) and back to you...", indicating that he's passing it back JQ2SFZ. 57N FB BK
That is a cool key. I don't think I've seen one like that. Is it dits to the left and dahs to the right and you hold it down for a string of each of the characters? (i.e., Hold left for 4 or 5 dits) That's pretty cool! I'm an old Army 05H morse operator from the early 80's.
It's an "iambic" keyer. Yes dits one way, dahs the other, hold for repeats. Set speed on the radio. Reverse the wires to change which side is dit/dah. There are many variations of this sort of key, some with a single paddle. HTH, de W1ADE (not a CW operator (yet) but did pass the intermediate test some years ago.)
Something like that. My stepfather had a training key that he built himself in his younger days. He used to be a telegraph. I've seen him demonstrating morse with that same training key, and seen how fast he could do it. And even though it's been decades, he can still operate close to triple the speed of the guy in this video without warming up.
Cool, I'm gonna learn this some day! For now, I'm practicing my hearing with writing random combinations of two letters at a time, processed and translated through a morse script I wrote=P It took a lot longer writing that script than I've practiced, though! hehe

His callsign was issued by the FCC. It is possible under newer rules, however, that he selected it from a pool of available callsigns known as "vanity callsigns."
How do you distinguish the dots and dashes so easily? My mind eventually just blends it together. I feel the tones should be different for the dot and dash to help distinguish it better.
Morse code was developed a long time ago. It is a very simple system, since it works by just letting electricity through when you want it to, causing a tone. It would be a lot harder to create a system with multiple tones. Granted, we could probably make something like that today, but normal morse has become such a standard that it would just be a nuisance to change it.
@@edwinlundmark Not really, the same way how ATC could easily change their radio transmissions over to FM or SSB… but stick with AM cause it’s tradition. 🤌🏻

@@the21herald I'm not sure if he was kidding or not but it is allowed, to answer your question. In the rule book for ham radio it says no encryptions/encoded messages other than to satellites and r/c vehicles. This means that you can't send a message that's encoded (essentially, you send a message, your transmitter encodes it, and it sends that code over the air to only be able to be decoded by a single or few person(s).) But Morse Code doesn't fall under this category because it is a message coming straight from a source that anyone that wanted to listen, could if they knew Morse Code. Perhaps think of it as a language of its own (You are allowed to speak any language as long as you identify in English). And you know it's allowed because the FCC (Federal Communication Commission) allocates certain bands to CW (Continuous Wave (How Morse Code is transmitted)) Hope this helps!
@@stopspro8 why isn't it allowed? Chat applications use encryption all the time, so does websites, and even online games. It is so accessible to the public and used on daily basis.

I struggle with 8wpm. It is to my advantage to become better at CW. I am financially challenged so I could never afford good equipment. For CW, you do not need good equipment. It can very easily be made out of old electronics. Sometimes I wonder why I keep renewing my amateur radio license. I have had it 25 years and have managed a couple of contacts on an old CB I found and modified for 10 meters, which anybody with interest can do. I came within 20 hours of letting my grace period expire last time. Maybe next time I may let it expire.
the uploader is not the person you see in the video. (that is a japanese operator) from my personal experience i know that morsecode was the easiest to learn here in germany.. engineering/electronics was harder.
By repetition you learn to recognoize the sound of the signal without thinking of the dots and dashes......it's the sound of the tone sequence group you get to recognize as a letter or number..........same as the international SOS standard morse for emergency.....everybody know what SOS is for and if you hear it often enough you get to recognoize the sound of the morse sequence.....all you then have to do is start listening to the A B C.... etc etc etc. BTW.....in a competition two morse senders were pitted against someone with a cell phone sending and receiving a text message..........they won......try sending 30 words per miute with a text message.

Hi Jack, I think it depends on how you can concentrate upon leaning it. It took me about a few weeks to memorize 26 letters and 10 numbers. However, sending them on the air and receiving them is totally different. Sending them is quite easy but when you receive them, you have to decode them to see what they are meaning without any electronic decoder. It took about 5 years for me to communicate like this on the video.
KC2RTP, Neat. This comment is horribly late and probably unnecessary but I still want to leave this comment. I’d also like to ask how did you get into ham? Because I’ve been going back and forth on the subject.
There are still morse code trainers, some are available online, some in various websites, some are via tape recording, some are on CD. Almost all ham radio sales outlets offer programs of one sort or another to still learn Morse Code or C.W. (continuous wave emissions).
He's using 2 paddles, one for dashes one for dots. If he holds a paddle down it'll keep repeating either the dots or dashes. Very cool compared to the old style.
+FlippRtheReaL it's people talking to each other using on/off keying as others have stated, also known as "Dits and Dahs", Morse Code. Some people pick up a mic and talk. But when it comes to the human ear and static. CW may be slow but it's the most reliable way to communicate. Last class of Coast Guard Radioman to learn CW was in Dec, 1993. Runs the wife crazy when I pull out the Grundig Satellit 750 when we set out on the deck and I fire up some CW to copy. Don't send so that's why I just wanted a receiver (got enough of that in my years) but still like to copy it. She just shakes her head. 73's
During "Meteor scatter" or other phenomenae, it's the best way to communicate. Also good for working EME, or moon-bounce. Moon bounce is bouncing your signal from earth off of the moon and hoping another station on earth can hear you. One can also reflect off of a satellite's reflective surfaces.....if you happen to know the scheduling of various satellites. Peace KI0MX

Where's your side tone, OM? 73 de Ohio. Jeff
I see you moved to the states..
This is really cool. How long did it take you to learn how to do that?
Practice every day for a whole life
How do you just translate in your brain?
By repetition you learn to recognoize the sound of the signal without thinking of the dots and dashes......it's the sound of the tone sequence group you get to recognize as a letter or number..........same as the international SOS standard morse for emergency.....everybody know what SOS is for and if you hear it often enough you get to recognoize the sound of the morse sequence.....all you then have to do is start listening to the A B C.... etc etc etc.
BTW.....in a competition two morse senders were pitted against someone with a cell phone sending and receiving a text message..........they won......try sending 30 words per miute with a text message.
Changing modulation
nice fist brother. really nice.
How do you do that, I would like to be able to send telegrams to people like that
What the point of these transmissions?
Konichiwa! I need one of the thumb key clickers that you use. I can't find them anywhere. Can you send me a link so I can buy one? Or can you sell me one? USD. I have Stage 2 Parkinson's. It is hard to press the one I have. My Stepdad is W&YBDZ. Azima. Please help so I can join the Ham Radio World. Arigato Goziemashta
it took me like 30m to get the first couple of seconds:
"Q
QRL?
QRL?
JQ2SFZ

JJ8KGZ
PSE K"
this has been my greatest achievement today
is morse hard to learn?
Hi Jack, I think it depends on how you can concentrate upon leaning it. It took me about a few weeks to memorize 26 letters and 10 numbers. However, sending them on the air and receiving them is totally different. Sending them is quite easy but when you receive them, you have to decode them to see what they are meaning without any electronic decoder. It took about 5 years for me to communicate like this on the video.
KC2RTP,
Neat.
This comment is horribly late and probably unnecessary but I still want to leave this comment.
I’d also like to ask how did you get into ham? Because I’ve been going back and forth on the subject.
M-i-c-e
Holy shit, this is scary
What does san mean? I had see that japoneses uses that word after your names
"Mister"
sick beat
kc2rtp, you from raleigh?
what key is that? paddles sort of look like a N3ZN but base looks different.
Begali key
doea A+M confuse you with J?
Too fast I can't even really catch it
Tai Man Chan then just lower the playback speed, this is a regular speed when you talk in morse code. They didn’t go too fast
how do i do this? there are no tutorials for telegraphing with ham radios
There are still morse code trainers, some are available online, some in various websites, some are via tape recording, some are on CD. Almost all ham radio sales outlets offer programs of one sort or another to still learn Morse Code or C.W. (continuous wave emissions).
What key is that? Thanks, Owen 2E0GPO
1000 KM???
Model of the keyer please? Price ? Where to buy it ?
mptrax this is Begali Sculpture iambig keyer. Italy around 400 Eu, 73 de kf4kul
Me ordering food from a bunker in Ukraine, during a bombing in Donbass:
what kind of key are you using?
how does one get a call sign?
Great key work. Some day for me also.
sounds like a rap
Is this in japanese morse?
what radio is that?
Ham
Very fast 120 bpm x minut
Very cool!
Mayday
Cool..........
I can barely see their movements!
He's using 2 paddles, one for dashes one for dots. If he holds a paddle down it'll keep repeating either the dots or dashes. Very cool compared to the old style.
This is fucking Dope

Do I here Darude Sandstorm?
Stop using that stupid ass overused boring comment, haven't people got the hint yet?
@@k.c.lejeune6613 appearently not
what is the beep
+FlippRtheReaL which one?
all of them
***** also known as cw
+FlippRtheReaL it's people talking to each other using on/off keying as others have stated, also known as "Dits and Dahs", Morse Code. Some people pick up a mic and talk. But when it comes to the human ear and static. CW may be slow but it's the most reliable way to communicate. Last class of Coast Guard Radioman to learn CW was in Dec, 1993. Runs the wife crazy when I pull out the Grundig Satellit 750 when we set out on the deck and I fire up some CW to copy. Don't send so that's why I just wanted a receiver (got enough of that in my years) but still like to copy it. She just shakes her head. 73's
During "Meteor scatter" or other phenomenae, it's the best way to communicate. Also good for working EME, or moon-bounce. Moon bounce is bouncing your signal from earth off of the moon and hoping another station on earth can hear you. One can also reflect off of a satellite's reflective surfaces.....if you happen to know the scheduling of various satellites. Peace KI0MX
