I'll throw this comment out before I get to reading all the replies...my method 20+ years ago was to get on the air every day no matter what. Practice makes perfect in anything you do. CW is no different. Get on the air no matter how slow or fast or crappy or perfect you send or receive. Someone out there will respond back to your CQ eventually and there is no looking back from that day forward. You'll miss letters, words, ask for repeats, miss tons of info but don't give up or get pissed off. Keep at it and you will see by the end of the summer that you will be hauling bootie with smokin fast CW. I went from 0 to 31 WPM in the first year that I was licensed (1987). I was on the air practically every day & night.
You can do it and this group and others can help...hi hi... Mike WE0H James S wrote: > Yes I'm only 30. I got my first ticket last November. I still have a lot > to learn; CW being one of them.
