same.. I spent the whole summer in 2018 just learning morse code and about white star line ships and I'm just now coming back to it, it's so confusing to me because the dits and dahs sound all mushed together you know? It's hard to tell the letters apart
Doing the same. this all turned up to be way harder than I thought lol. did you manage to get the hang of it eventually? I see your comment is from 7 months ago.
@@ahadmoeen4102 WRONG!! One of the best code practices is to have the letters at 18-20 wpm but wide spaced at the beginning to force you NOT to count dots/dashes but get the sound.
This is basically how I am trying to learn, by learning the WORDS not just the letters. It takes too long to think letters then put them together as words. I have thought many times that I wish some one would come up with a program that teaches it this way with a visual as well as auditory. I tend to learn better and faster when I can see it, hear it, and practice it ie: tapping it out. Good video, Thanks.
Jonathan Adami, may I recommend that you both start at a higher speed - like 25 or even 30 wpm - as a warmup. Then step down to the next lowest video AA4OO offers. At first, you will only pick out a few words but, if you keep this up on a daily basis for 30 minutes per day, you will improve noticeably within a month. Also add to this by listening to either QSOs on the air or Morse text (not just words) so the syntax helps you fill in missed fragments. And, most importantly, if you are in the "middle" of a word and don't have a clue, DROP IT and prepare yourself for THE FIRST LETTER of the next word. It is almost impossible to figure out words from the "trailing" letters. Practice, practice, and practice some more. You will be able to copy 20 wpm in no time.
if Morse code was originally taught like this, it would be the same way a person learns to speak, a child learns words by hearing the whole word not spelled out, good idea. you know there will always be a but, you still will have to learn the characters later. just like you learn to spell and read in school.
This video is very useful for me. I have amateur radio license in japan. I want to begin CW at once. Thank you so much. I'm 65 years old, japanese. 2021.10.5
Keep going. Ur getting it. You'll succeed. But don't stop. I've been a Ham 50 years, and still struggling. The code has not been a personal priority. As a kid , I wanted only the tech patt
One of the most helpful videos for Morse code learners. Thank you so much. PS Can you use your good offices to get the silly “picture pattern” Morse teachers off the TH-cam? They do more harm than good.
I wish all who are learning to decode morse code with their "brain housing unit", as one of my former electronics instructor used to say, the very best! Have fun and enjoy.
Good video and exercise! I think I missed fewer than ten. You have a good fist and spacing and the spacing makes all the difference. I didn't notice the words in the display for the first few minutes, when I did I started using it as a crutch. Many years ago I used a reader for copy then put it away. I need more practice. 73!
Love it! I haven’t been active on CW for 25-30 years but I was at 20wpm when I stopped. Nice to see I can get back to speed with your video…AND this time I can teach myself to copy in my head, which was a huge stumbling block to going faster than 20. (20 is the fastest I can write out the words.) Tnx de WB3CFN 😊
YOU HAVE THE BEST SENDING ON UTUBE. COULD U MAKE LESSON WITH A WHOLE SENTENCES WITH STORY LINE? IM IMPROVED WITH UR LESSONS BUT NOW NEED WHOLE SENTENCES
10 wpm , baely.. What happens during the process of learning morse is you gradually begin storing charectors so that you are writting words two to three words behind what is being sent. Copyimg morse at twenty + wpm becomes easy peasey. A US Navy suppky message might have had strings of ketter nt'S IN THE 12 AND 15 CHARECTOR RANGE
Hello Daryl, I've posted a video for 23 wpm, 500 common English words. I chose 23 wpm because that's the slowest DIT speed for my Vibroplex Bug with the standard weight hi-hi
Don't listen for the "individual" sounds of the DITS and DAHS but rather listen for the combination of elements that make up a particular character. After you're recognizing the characters move on to exercises like this video where you're becoming familiar with entire words.
Thanks for your time. Very helpful. I still find myself copying each letter, rather than the entire word - if you follow my meaning. Great help though. Love to longer spacing between the words too. vk7ldh.
With practice you'll find yourself spelling the word in your head. Also, the faster the word-per-minute speed of the code the "easier" it gets to hear the words because you're not having to buffer the letters in your head.
I skipped to the end with all the words viewable....& I know all them words and Morse code is short or long combinations. I spent like 4 minuets on this video and now I’m a master!! Don’t need all them beep and doot noises...practice....or to know flash combinations.....no teacher....well I did pay attention to the guy speaking but hell I knew them words & what Morse code means long ago!

when you get to the higher speeds, writing it down can slow you down, it has to become a language, practice, practice, practice. de AG7VC
This was 20wpm, can't believe that "better days" was 40wpm.. Man did they did a great job decoding it

"AN" came so fast I heard "P" .- -. .--.
And yet in my humble opinion, it was correctly done, I've used mnemotechnics to remember those and there's definitely a pause in between.
Also, Jerry Ziliak, KB6MT (sk), had tapes/MP3s of high speed words in code. This technique in the video is very effective to get the speed up.
Awesome video, thanks for making it. Especially awesome to see you have a Ten-Tec Century 21!

I'm starting to add QSOs with the words on screen. In lieu of that listen to some of the on-air QSOs that will help you put it into context.
Thanks for these videos! Hard for me to not watch the screen as it plays - not sure that helps me much.

There's no way the 'O' in 'ONE' sounds to me like an 'O'. No matter how many times I replay it it sounds like an 'X'.
Thanks you very much, do you have one yet 25 wpm , 500 most common English words yet?
Hello Daryl, I've posted a video for 23 wpm, 500 common English words. I chose 23 wpm because that's the slowest DIT speed for my Vibroplex Bug with the standard weight hi-hi
Now you should make one with the top 100 most used words in English CW QSOs. THAT would actually be useful.
See if this is what you are looking for th-cam.com/video/JskAldoROMM/w-d-xo.html
Thought I had mastered morse til I watched this video
Would it be better to display the letter /after/ the morse code for it plays? I like trying to decode the letter audibly before seeing it.
I hadn't noticed. What I do, listening to this, is to look away and then glance up to confirm what I believe that I have heard after the whole word.
Great job! Congrats! CW Forever!
Thank you!
I'm just getting into CW but is "you" (1:24) sounding right to the experts here? It seems to have crunched the O to my ears.
i know all the letters i just cant tell the difference between long and short sounds ( . and - ) any advice?
also how to know when each letter is done and they r on to the next
Don't listen for the "individual" sounds of the DITS and DAHS but rather listen for the combination of elements that make up a particular character. After you're recognizing the characters move on to exercises like this video where you're becoming familiar with entire words.
Excellent public service. Thank you! 73, K0VY
thank you for your video!

I would love these at 8WPM
Very helpful video for practice. Thank you very much.
Thx for the video. Very interesting. I have shared it with some radio friends.

The spaces between the words are exaggerated by about 3 times making it sound like about 13 wpm or so.
Correct. The words themselves are sent at 20wpm but there is extra spacing between each word to aid in comprehension.
Great I am able to copy but after one or two minutes I sleep...So I have to train more. Thank you for this vid. HB9IIH
thanks!
What software/hardware is this comprised of???
do we learn each individual letter in morse code or each word? or each letter then start going onto each word?
I present how to learn morse code in this video th-cam.com/video/mbp-d-u4aLc/w-d-xo.html
Whats the practice Regiment for getting acclimated to hearing/translating per Sound with no visuelle
Don't watch the screen. Attempt to head copy. Hit the space bar to stop the video when you miss a word to see what it was before continuing.
Been doing cw only for years. Now i dont hear letters, i only hear words 73
Is this 20wpm character speed or Farnsworth?
That video uses Farnsworth. Look for my other videos marked as "normal speed" and do not use Farnsworth timing.
Exelente Video
Can you make one with 30 wpm please?
I can’t listen to any slower speeds now! Hopefully that is progress on my part😅
In radio conversations, I almost never hear "you", it's almost always "u". "And" is "es" - "back" is bk. "Yes" is "fb". Etc.
I agree, take a look at the QSO words video for an example of common "Ham CW" words.
HamRadioQRP Ah, ok. Got it, thanks sir.
In England, "es" is taken to mean "and", and "fb" is short for "fine business", that is, "very good". From G4FSN.
