Since October 2020 I have practiced “listening” to morse code every day for about 20 minutes on the platform Learn CW online .

Now I can hear all letters at a character speed / effective speed of 40/11 WpM (words per minute).

Starting next week I start listening to words and also sending morse code!

After some extensive research and after several conversations with experienced morse code experts, I have decided to “send” via an iambic paddle (and yes, I know, opinions differ widely).

For this I use the paddle from BaMaTech .

After another evaluation, I am also a proud owner of a Morserino-32 .

With this everything is now ready that I can start practicing “sending” from this weekend onwards.
