About this title

Synopsis

Don’t Just Learn Morse Code, Master It!

Tune in to the low end of any HF band, and you’ll find it populated with operators using Morse Code for casual conversations, chasing DX or fast paced contests. They enjoy practicing a skill that they worked hard for, a skill not everyone has. You can learn that skill too. If you are new to amateur radio or high frequency (HF) operation, or even if you’ve been operating HF phone and RTTY but were reluctant to try learning and using CW, this book is especially for you.

Morse Code Operating for Amateur Radio is your introduction into the fascinating world of CW. It discusses how to get started in the hobby, the advantages to learning and using Morse code, how to set up your station for CW and how to adjust your key. Learn the protocols and techniques unique to CW operating, and gain the confidence to try out your new skills on the air!
