CW Resources

There has been a lot of interest in CW and CW practice within the group. Here are some online resource that I have found and have used to work on my CW proficiency (or lack thereof):

 

Learn CW Online:http://lcwo.net

This is a free website that features an entire koch-method course, as well as practice qso's word groups, random groups, callsign training. You can download mp3 practice files to put on your mp3 player as well. The site keeps stats that visualize your progress. It is a very effective tool. It is free to use.

 

G4FON koch trainer: http://www.g4fon.net/

This is a piece of software that runs on windows that utilizes the Koch method of teach CW. The koch method emphasis learning code at a usefull speed, where the mind recognizes the entire sound of a character instead of breaking it into dits and dahs. The makes learning code much faster and easier, without the speed plateus that are encountered when learning code at slow speed, and then trying to speed up.

Use of these tools, along with on-air practice sessions can help develop your CW skill quickly.

    The ever poplular http://www.Fists.org is a wonderful site. I use a program called Just learn Morse Code. For on air listening and an error correction I use CWGet,but nothing compares to on air mistakes. I have made a few but it is so much fun to be on the air.
