Just got my first bug. 1970 Vibroplex Champion. Bugs are the reason I wanted to learn CW, and I have always admired your videos. Hoping I can make the jump. Not sure that I’m ready, but I am VERY excited to try. Also, it seems like my dits/dahs are opposite of you. Meaning my round pad is the dah and straight is the dit.
I suggest that you get comfortable with whatever key you are using before you move to a bug because you will lose a few WPM. But, practice will pay off and you will have lots of fun with a bug. But be sure to slow it way down when you start learning. I still keep mine pretty slow because I like to chat with new CW ops.
And yes, my bug is backwards because I use a left-handed bug with my right hand :-)
Nice one, Jim! Blessings!
That is totally Bad Ass Brother Jim..
Thank you. I'm just learning how to use multiple cameras and mix them together in the video editor. Trying to improve!
How surprised I was to see a friend’s callsign pop up on your screen?!
Great Video!
I’m going to check my log to see if we have talked.. if NOT.. I’ll be listening for you on the air!! 73

Looking forward to chatting with you Mike!
Love the Begali Blade, thanks for the video ! Best 73
Yes, can't go wrong with a Blade! 73, Jim W6JIM
Nice sending bugs! I have to send no copy with many bugs I try to copy. I've got the Vibroplex straight key, and I like it real well. Could you let me know what the logging spp you are using is? I can't find one that suits me and is driving me crazy. Thank you!
Hello Larry. I'm using SKCC Logger. I use it with all my SKCC QSOs. Makes it real easy. You can get it after joining the SKCC Logger Groups.io
Your sk fist is great jim. 73
Thanks Jay. I'm not too fast, but I do try to be clear and understood. 73, W6JIM
@@W6JIM who needs speed anyway
So you use your right hand but run on left handed bugs? Interesting.
Hello Rich. Yes, I learned CW without an Elmer and when I hooked up the wires to my first paddle, I figured I had a 50/50 chance of getting it right. No luck! 73, Jim
