I credit Long Island CW for finally getting me on the air. They have GOTA classes that teach you how and when it is easiest to do. Not to mention, they push you to get on the air when you have the minimum proficiency instead of waiting for a high level which is incredibly important.
We believe Howard and Jim are expounding on being "good enough" is the way to bettering one's qualities and speeds via an "in the trenches" approach to GOTA w/CW. We have an upcoming video release on the K7K DXpedition, James Gallo the Presenter, touches upon one of the K7K DX'ers who can comprehend CW 40 WPM hearing it, while having a verbal conversation off topic with an adjacent Participant. He will Keyboard type a reply in a CW app because he IS faster and more comfortable operating in this fashion. Thank you for your comment.
@@FairlawnARC, the problem with the background cw/noise was that it was distracting. People like me are unable to tune out background noise. Most people are able to, but only a few are not. its called Cocktail Party Syndrome hearing.
I signed up at the LI CW Club. Can’t wait to start learning!
Thanks for posting this video, I wouldn’t have known about the club without it!
Awesome! Thank you!
