I love CW (That is: Morse Code). On the Ham Radio bands, I operate almost exclusively CW. It is fun and rewarding. It is a challenge. It is an easy way to get those DX contacts in the middle of the lowest part of the sun spot cycle.
There seems to be a resergence of interest in CW. Eliminating CW as a requirement to get a Ham Radio license hasn’t done much to bolster our numbers. CW is not the reason that our hobby has declining numbers.
Enter LCWO.net . LCWO.net is a web site I just discovered that will help you learn, or improve your CW skills. LCWO stands for “Learn CW Online”. I fiddled around a bit on the site and found it very interesting; and it will even track your progress. Give LCWO.net a try, it just might be the ticket to help you learn, or improve your CW.
CW is FUN!
