Care to share a few of these thought provoking items with us? Honestly I’m extremely skeptical that there is anything that hasn’t already been said about CW.
Not a CW op, and a pretty new ham, so this might not be anything that hasn’t been said before, but it’s new to me. That said, I was finding the early section on language element recognition interesting, as well as the section on the rhythm of Morse code. I am very early into the book, so perhaps I spoke to soon, but I am finding interesting, so far. 73 cal VE6CLG
Hi, made five CW ragchews last night on 40 M. Been on CW since 1957 and it's still fun. Got the book yesterday. The best thing about it is that it is well written. It's very much like 'ZEN and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance' or Bach's 'Nothing by Chance'. You can enjoy it for the stories and the stories are about Ham Radio.
For what purpose? Or, perhaps I should ask, ddDd DDD dDd ' dDD dddd dD D ' dDDd ddD dDd dDDd DDD ddd d ' ddDDdd (added the apostrophes to separate words) dddDdD
Thanks for letting me know the kindle version is now available, it was only hard copy at first. Just bought
I just got the Kindle version. I like the comparison of music and code. I think of language as music anyway!
Fair question. Short answer: it allows of people to "read" correct Morse to themselves as of part of the "code talking" curriculum. Students learn to read and say the sounds BEFORE learning what they "mean." Babies babble on the way to knowing what "mama" means, let alone the alphabet. I've placed "Double-d" in the public domain.
