Hi Keith, love you videos. They are very helpful for us newbies to CW. After watching and commenting on your last video, you gave me enough advice in your reply and enough info in that video to give me enough nerve to make my first contact. It was a POTA contact and actually easier to make than I thought. My problem is that I have a hard time copying CW. With the POTA script I can follow along good enough to make contacts. In the past 2 weeks I have made 23 contacts. I could have had more but I was on vacation for one of those weeks. I am going to tell anybody that reads this that if I can make a CW contact, anybody can. Just follow Keith's POTA script that he shows in the video and that is all that you need. 73 and THANK YOU for all the advice and help!!
I am thrilled for you and what a positive experience for you too. Lots of others should pay attention to your success. Congratulations
I used to write down a tiny script when I was starting out contacting others radio amateurs by Morse. It couldn't be very long because I only sent at 5 words per minute which is 25 characters per minute! That was back in 1965.
I remember those days. In Canada we started at 7 wpm and had to go to 12 for the next level.
Thank you so much for posting this video. I’m just about ready to get on the air
Awesome good luck!
I remember those days. Lots US novice ops at 5 wpm. It helped Canadians as we were 7 or 12 wpm.
Always to the point and helpful tips! Let those with ears hear...
Always say what I think lol
Hi, I still use one after 40 years it helps 😊
It sure does, I use mine all the time
Thanks Geoff. I will probably do more on specific scripts in the coming weeks. Glad this helped.
Great insight. How about sharing the text files for the scripts so we can modifiy and print?
I will look at doing that with a few sites in the coming days
When I first started to learn CW a couple years ago, I joined SKCC but immediately moved to a paddle. I do not use a straight key. Can I still make a QSO with a SKCC member and should I give them my SKCC # even though I don't use a straight key? Yes, I am still new but have enough confidence to make contacts.
I asked that question of the SKCC board. The answer is an absolute NO. You have to use some type of mechanical key when you're communicating with an SKCC member. Sometimes, when I'm calling CQ with my paddle, someone will answer me, and give me their SKCC number. When I hear that, I'll then switch my paddle out with my straight key, and continue the QSO.
I would like to get started but have many questions. I would like to contact you directly if possible.
You can always use my email: VE3SVQ@GMAIL.COM
Check their requirements on their web page. To be skcc contact I believe it must be a straight key, cootie or bug.
Thanks Keith... very useful. DE G1WRH. Geoff
Can you please share the template of those scripts ? 73's /ct1bsd
I have added a few videos looking at each one I suggested in this video. I will add more when I have the time. 73
