I am one of those people who should jump in to get on the air, but keeps putting it off. I understand that everyone makes mistakes. My concern now is how to practice what to do when I make a mistake so I don’t panic. Do most people send the 8 dits and then start over?
Excellent question. On POTA you hear them sending a lot of dits quite often probably because a lot of new cw ops start with POTA contacts. I did that for awhile but I am closer now to pausing and then resending if it is important information, otherwise I often just keep going as suggested in a video by Howard WB2UZE one of the founding members of LICW. If I can find his video I will post it back here for you.

Always enjoy your videos, not worried about speed. Just getting competent.

One of the best videos on making mistakes- I now do more of what he suggests ruclips.net/video/r7YxCKtjZAc/видео.htmlsi=LTJDoLfdiOkeYNk2
Thank you. I think, for me, you just hit quite a few nails on quite a few heads 😉 73 de G0TVJ
