Radio morse code

[damesx711]

The People that know John he is not want you think he is. if you have any questions about what kind of person he is just you do not want to trust him with your little girls or let alone you daughter. Trust me....

Best way to learn it was the instructor at Ft. Devens, MA in 1972 "Class - di dah alpha" and the class repeated it as we hit the "a" key on the keyboard til we got proficient up to 18 gpm. At 30 gpm we were lowly gs5 civilians at an embassy after the army. It sticks with you and you can still copy it almost 40 years later. Lots of 05H people with outdated skills now.

[BubbaBouy]

Mike. Thanks for the comment and look forward to a CW qso with you. 73 W5JBO previously WA6BOB.

[vk2ig]

Thanks for posting this video it's great! It reminds me of when I was learning CW for my licence exams 30+ years ago. My friend (VK4AFM) and I had access to a HF receiver and a two-speed reel-to-reel tape deck - we'd tape the coast radio stations transmitting weather reports, traffic lists, etc, and play it back slow so we could read it. :-) I still use CW.

hi i like you is what the morse code says

[BubbaBouy]

"to bile ant on ta iion tripodesse" is the true message but he is abbreviating and is talking about using a mobile antenna mounted on a tripod at home.

it really says:

MOBILE ANT ON AN IION TRIPOD •••••••(WHICH MEANS ERROR CORRECTION TO FOLLOW).(WHICH I BELIEVE WAS THE START OF AN R .-. TO CORRECT IION TO IRON)

Merry Christmas 73 W5JBO

[ChupaloRico]

Im trying to find out what the message says, but its hard (im learning for myself sice yesterday!). So far i can read Morse, but its hard to hear. Can u write the message? In that way it would help me to learn to hear Morse. Thanks¡¡¡

I got here after following a few vids about the Titanic. Reminds me when I was a kid buying radio stuff from a war surplus shop. I still have the first morse key I bought for a shilling. Just wish I kept the radio set that I beleive was the same as that in the Lancaster bomber. Even had 2 spare sets of valves for it.

Bedroom like a junkshop .... I reckon the more serious and licensed hams (and my mum) had a party to celebrate the day I turned my attentions to girls LOL.

[BubbaBouy]

@tpsossff It will be interesting as to how this will most likely stay with you as a hobby in your later life. I have enjoyed it for 46 years as well as an EE in the Aerospace industry. Keep those old VALVES, it's great to see them glow in the dark and keep the shack wark in the winter months.

@BubbaBouy

When I bought the set in 1967 it was still in the original shipping boxes as were the sets of spares. But they did find their way to a fitting end .... in the hands of an old boy who appreciated what they were and, after he retired, used to hold workshops for youngsters who wanted to learn more about the subject.

This will make you reach .......... when I bought that stuff it cost me the princely sum of £18, that is about $30. I wonder how much that stuff would fetch now.

[BubbaBouy]

Do you have a shortwave receiver ? That would be a great way to learn the morse code directly from the amateur radio bands. The speeds vary from 5 to 40 words a minute and it is good to become familiar to how people send. Almost like a separate finger print for each operator. A lot of words are also abbreviated. There are several web sites that have free Morse code tests as well as random character generation. Check my other "welcome to me on mytube". That is fairly fast.

[udlacaga]

wtf this was realy fast i m an 19 year women and i m trying to learn this in my spare time!!! is realy awsom i m gonna have to practice this realy hard!!!

[BubbaBouy]

@udlacaga Practice makes perfect in due time. I have enjoyed this now for 46 years.

W5JBO John

[udlacaga]

@BubbaBouy wow!!!

[BubbaBouy]

Curious as to how you found my video on You Tube and what enlightens you to seek learning it? just curious as my daughter is also licensed for amateur radio.

[udlacaga]

@BubbaBouy well!! i ve been thinking about learning morse code since i was i n hight scholl for cheeting in the exams...but now i m just want to learn because nobody knows how to use it!!! (im from costa rica by the way) so here i am,i visited a few videos about morse code alphabet and then i saw this one that looks realy advanced!!! and i thouht...i m way to far to learn this army style haha

[flyboy5842]

obilea,,,, something something something. Do people actually straight up read this straight through because I had to start over 10 times just to get that far.

[BubbaBouy]

@flyboy5842 the conversation is in part and abbreviated describing a mobile antenna that is mounted on a tripod .

John W5JBO formerly  WA6BOB

[Magnetbirne]

obile ant onta ii ontripodes

[BubbaBouy]

You have it correct, abbreviated word. True straight key op. 73 now W5JBO

[VerisonMember]

Just by ear and the Skills I learned today. This is what I came up with. I cant make sense out of it. But these are the letters. I tried spacing them out into words. Not sure if I got it quite right. I'm pretty confident in the letters at least:

...Mobile ant onta iion tripod esse...

SOH?

@loust2 really SOS lol

[umpalumpa101909]

i wish i knew morse code :P, im learning but its hard :P

[BubbaBouy]

If you have a receiver for the Ham Bands, then listen on 80 or 40 meters in the CW portion and you will catch on quickly.

73 wa6bob

[umpalumpa101909]

@BubbaBouy i have a scanner and listen to the Ham Bands from time to time, sometimes hear Morse, but is Too Fast for me to Latch on

[dntforche]

using google you can find sites that have morse code and set up to listen to at different speeds. there are a bunch.

[umpalumpa101909]

@umpalumpa101909 Now i know morse code :D

[powertube5671]

When I was learning Morse code (a long time ago:-) I picked a different four or five letter word per day and memorized the code sequence for the word. Some words would contain some letters in previous words. Each time, the memory of letters became re-enforced. I also had other ham friends (in our teens) in high school and we would talk to each other in morse.

Back then, Morse code did not have a stigma. It was part of the fun of becoming a ham.

@powertube5671 It is pretty awesome, It's somewhat "Wierd" As people tell me, that a 18 year old Loves CW as much as i do, i can now send CW perect, But i have not taken the time to learn to Receive CW, Wich i really should do

[stuart782]

@powertube5671 good idea with the four and five letter words powertube, think i'll borrow that. In Australia we no longer have morse as a part of our licensing, but nearly all still like to have a go!

@umpalumpa101909 its not really herd to learn its just when u get to the part of reading it on the fly thats when it gets hard. like rite now i need a pen and paper

[xXJeeXTeeXAyeXmanXx]

@umpalumpa101909 i use it (and know it) for ADF, and i am pretty good, buut, i still keep a handbook w/me! theres wkikpedia & stuff.

[lincolnmetal1]

ah a good ol collins s-line receiver 75s-xx....sounds like you have the waters rejection on it as well...73

[BubbaBouy]

Tnx om I njoy cw

[ncs2000]

i dun understand this video

[BubbaBouy]

Scroll down and it will disclose the content of the conversation.

[BubbaBouy]

Just a taste of CW with a good old Collins Receiver.

[hispanno5]

muy bueno! llevo buscando un sonido asi mucho tiempo

[BubbaBouy]

I enjoy CW 73 wa6bob

[proggedout]

anyone fancy doing a project with me and my band? I need a passage or 2 converted into morse code, then I will convert the patterns into a drum beat and the guitar riffs will follow.. its a prog rock group

[BubbaBouy]

What would you like converted into morse code? do you have any current lyric's?

John, aka BubbaBouy, WA6BOB

[SimiaDei]

look up Thrice - Image of the Invisible - around 1 min in.

They did this amazingly!

Good Luck!

[lbevIT]

Great!

' tobile ant on taii on tripodesse ' ??

[BubbaBouy]

"to bile ant on ta iion tripodesse" that is a portion of his conversation implying he is using a mobile antenna on an iron tripod. Also with the error correction as stated from hack41yt's comment below.

73's WA6BOB

[hack41yt]

It says:

"T T E E E T E T E T T T E T T E T" lol

It is a guy doing straight key

it really says:

MOBILE ANT ON AN IION TRIPOD •••••••(WHICH MEANS ERROR CORRECTION TO FOLLOW).(WHICH I BELIEVE WAS THE START OF AN R .-. TO CORRECT IION TO IRON)

He is a little sloppy but I was able to read it so all should. For those who got "to bile ant on ta iion tripodesse" stop using CWget it will only hamper your efforts at leaning morse. Get G4FON Koch Trainer and you will learn quick.

73's KU5E

[pidrpede]

mind telling me whats the message, bubba? currently learning m-code so could really use seeing if i was right.

[raypsi]

Wish i could afford a colins rig, of any kind.

[WhindSoull]

Yeah, I suck at Morse. I just got "Mobil" and then lost it.

[gmcjetpilot]

Thank goodness, FCC dropped the need to know Morse Code to get a ham license. The snobs & nerds think it lets cavemen into the Ham radio cult, but they've never actually kissed a girl or had a date lately. Morse is by ear not sight BTW. You can cheat & send a receive (decode) M-code or "CW" (Ham talk for carrier wave & morse code) with a computer. Other ways to send non verbal messages "Hams" use are: RTTY, PSK31, Packet & many more; they sound like insane fast M-code, modem or fax machine.

[FilmPA]

i cant imagine trying to read that fucking needle because its not bumping in sync in the fucking least with the beeps. its like 2 beeps per needle jump then 3! unpredictable

[BubbaBouy]

One thing you need to take into consideration is the AGC is operating in the slow mode, as well as the RF gain is well above the noise threshold.

Tnx 73 WA6BOB

[Dennis34648]

CW 4 EVER!

[BubbaBouy]

Have you seen the other one with the "S" line rcvr and at abt 30 wpm?

[stoker20]

Yes FB OM I think you've got it. dit dit

[ryology]

it doesnt say much. but i was able to translate it.

"to bile ant on ta iion tripodesse"
