Recognizing common CW words used in POTA/SOTA etc. 

Thanks! I appreciate it

Thank you! I appreciate it. I'm glad I was able to help. Good luck on your CW journey. It's a blast!

Thanks for watching! Yeah, hunting is fun for sure. I just finished an activation with 186 contacts. My brain is about fried 😂

Thanks! Yeah, it can be confusing if you don't know what you're listening to. When I first started learning, I would watch Thomas Witherspoon's videos and wonder what Dah di di dit Dah di Dah over and over meant. Once I learned what BK stood for, and how it was used, it made SO much more sense LOL. Thanks for watching!

Yes, you are. RR is very common. You'll often hear it instead of a BK when the convo goes back to the other operator and they respond with RR. It's hard as a new op because you don't always know what to expect. Most activators stick to the "script" so to speak, but every once in a while someone goes off the rails, and if you can't copy at the speed they're sending it can be a bit frustrating. Just do the best you can do, and copy what you can copy. The more you do it the easier it gets. It'll get to the point where instead of hearing dits and dahs, you'll hear the conversation going back and forth as words and phrases.

Thank you!

No problem!

It's a really nice key. To be perfectly honest though, I prefer my UR5CDX key, and it's half the price. You should check them out.

Thanks! That's a practice oscillator from cwmorse.us
